Netanyahu gave a speech at the UN general assembly. Most people walked out. The place was only about 1/4 full when he took the podium. A large crowd entered the gallery up above. Apparently he brought his own audience to clap for him. Remember, the General Assembly are the diplomatic representatives from all the countries of the world. This expresses the general view of Israel worldwide.
He claimed Hezbollah "put a missile in every kitchen, a rocket in every garage." This is apparently a pretext to strike at all civilian targets in Lebanon (many recent airstrikes by the IDF have hit weapons caches as evidenced by many secondary explosions and/or missiles flying wildly out from the site bombed, I don't dispute that, but in every kitchen? in every garage?)
They levelled 6 apartment buildings in Beirut claiming there were military underneath, and that the apartment buildings were "human shields". Despite whether or not there were military underneath (this is still to be determined), it is a war crime to strike that location given the massive civilian deaths it caused.
Remember, military officers can go home to their wives and children at night. That does not mean they are using their families as human shields. N12 News in Israel claims the strike killed Zeinab Nasrallah (Hassan Nasrallah's daughter), indicating that this was likely Hassan Nasrallah's residence and not a military installation.
Netanyahu does not care about war crimes anymore because he is already a war criminal. What incentive does he have now to avoid further war crimes? None. He continues to trash Israel's international standing, turning Israel into a recidivist terrorist state.
