Netanyahu's speech was delivered amid a mass walkout by dozens of delegates was being broadcast live on every cellphone in Gaza, courtesy of Israeli intelligence hijacking devices of residents and Hamas operatives.
Speaking directly (by means of loudspeakers surrounding Gaza) to the 20 remaining living hostages and their captors, Netanyahu issued a stark ultimatum: "Lay down your arms, let my people go, free the hostages all of them, the whole 48. If you do, you will live. If you don’t, Israel will hunt you down."
