During the United Nations Security Council's April 18th quarterly "open debate" on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, Israel's UN Ambassador Danny Danon delivered an impassioned speech accusing the Palestinian leadership of inciting violence against Israeli civilians and honoring the terrorists. “The endless incitement and the ongoing glorification of violence,” by the Palestinians “is directly responsible for the murder of innocent Israelis,” he said.
In his speech before the Security Council, Ambassador Danon recalled the story of Dafna Meir, who was murdered at the entrance of her home in Otniel, Israel by a fifteen year-old Palestinian. Three of Meir’s children, including her daughter Renana, were home at the time. The terrorist later admitted that he was inspired to kill by video clips and other hate filled content on Palestinian TV and social media.
