Netanyahu at UN: Invites Abbas to Knesset, willing to go to Ramallah

Benjamin Netanyahu spoke at the U.N. today.

As usual, it was an excellent speech.

The headline is that Netanyahu offered to have Palestinian President speak at the Israeli Knesset (parliament) and for Netanhahu to speak at the parliament in Ramallah.

One of the funniest parts was when Netanyahu mocked Palestinian’s threat to sue Britain for the Balfour Declaration (I’ll add a video clip when I can find it, but you can click here to the point in the full speech where it takes place.)
