U.N. Security Council Meeting on Killing of Hamas Leader
2 hours, 1 minute"We must first stress the rank hypocrisy on display here today," said Israeli Deputy Ambassador to the United Nations Brett Miller at the emergency U.N. Security Council meeting called by Iran over the killing of Hamas political leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran. The deputy ambassador referred to Iran as the "world's number one sponsor of terrorism," and called out Iran for using its proxies - Hamas and Hezbollah - to target Israel. Iranian Ambassador to the U.N. Amir Saeid Iravani called the killing of Ismail Haniyeh "cowardly" and urged the U.N. Security Council to take "immediate and effective action," but that Iran "reserves the inherent right to self-defense." U.S. Deputy Ambassador to the U.N. Robert Wood said the U.S. was not aware of "the apparent death" of Haniyeh in Iran and encouraged "members of this council, with direct influence over Iran, to increase pressure on it to stop escalating its proxy conflict against Israel and other actors."

Senate Judiciary Chair Dick Durbin (D-IL) described such experiences as punishment that was "cruel and unusual," referring to a violation of the eighth amendment of the Constitution. Ms. Umberger said, "our country, it needs to be better. It should be better. I was promised better." During his closing remarks, the subcommittee's chair, Sen. Jon Ossoff (D-GA) said, "the United States goes around the world lecturing other nations on human rights, but how can we hear what we've heard today and accept that even basic human rights are being protected in our society?"
