Israeli envoy: Abbas’s words like a ‘ticking time bomb’
Israeli Ambassador to the UN Danny Danon slams Abbas’s speech at the General Assembly, saying his claim of “Israeli aggression against our Muslim and Christian holy sites” is tantamount to “a ticking time bomb.”
“Abbas chose to use the UN pulpit to represent Palestinian terror,” Danon says in a statement sent to the media shortly after the Palestinian leader spoke. “His dangerous words are sure to lead to even more terror attacks against Israel. The Palestinian youth listening to his speech today, will be the terrorists of tomorrow.”
Danon also draws a direct connection between Abbas’s “hateful” comments and a rise in attacks against Israelis.
“Abbas’s words are like a ticking time bomb,” he says.
