About this sermon
Nearly one year after the October 7th attacks, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spoke to the United Nations General Assembly. He asserted that his country will be taking the fight to Hezbollah so citizens in Northern Israel can return home. Netanyahu brought attention to the ongoing hostage situation in Gaza, calling on Hamas to release them in order for the war to stop. Shortly after his speech massive blasts rocked Beirut where the Israeli military says it carried out a strike on Hezbollah's headquarters. The blasts leveled six buildings. Lebanon's health ministry says more than 700 have been killed in the country this week. Professor of Law and International Peace Studies at the Kroc Institute at the University of Notre Dame, Mary Ellen O'Connell, joins to share what she made of Netanyahu's address at the UN and the speech overall. Netanyahu said he came to the General Assembly to give his speech in response to "lies and slander" being leveled at his country from the same podium. O'Connell tells us how she thinks that was received in the room. Shortly after the speech, the Israeli military said it carried out a strike in Beirut, targeting Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah. O'Connell discusses her reaction and whether she thinks Israel will intensify its strikes. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
