Netanyahu attacks Britain, France for past colonialism

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu attacked Britain and France for their past colonial empires during a speech Thursday at the United Nations.

"They accuse Israel, tiny Israel, of colonialism -- some colonialism. And who's accusing us? Among them are people in Britain and in France. For God's sakes, they invented the term," he told the U.N. General Assembly.
