America\u2019s man at the United Nations unloaded on Iran\u2019s chief diplomat Thursday, delivering a blistering smackdown after Tehran\u2019s envoy tried to shut down an emergency Security Council session on the Gulf crisis \u2014 telling him bluntly that intimidation tactics don\u2019t fly on East River soil.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is not Tehran,\u201d U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. Mike Waltz thundered at Iranian envoy Amir Saeid Iravani after the Iranian diplomat suggested the council shouldn\u2019t even be meeting and accused Waltz and other members of spreading lies. \u201cThis is the United States of America. This is the United Nations Security Council. You will not silence this body.\u201d<\/p>\n

Waltz \u2014 the first Green Beret elected to Congress, who <\/span>served 27 years in the U.S. Army, including multiple combat tours in Afghanistan, the Middle East, and Africa, and received four Bronze Stars, including two for valor \u2014 <\/span>wasn\u2019t done. He continued:<\/p>\n

\n

The representative goes on to say that the ambassador from Bahrain, the foreign minister, myself, and other members of this body are full of lies; they were lying. Let me ask you. What here is a lie? Who\u2019s lying here? Is this Arab family in Bahrain in a residential neighborhood whose home was destroyed by an Iranian Shahed drone, are they lying? Crowne Plaza Hotel, full of tourists? Are they lying? First responders whose headquarters were struck deliberately so that they couldn\u2019t put out fires:\u00a0 Were they lying? Is this hypocrisy? Is this what this council is here to denounce today? I ask the representative, are these lies? Are these photographs, are these lies? I\u2019d say not.<\/em><\/p>\n

Iran will not silence us on our own soil.<\/p>\n

That might work in Tehran, but not in the UN Security Council.<\/p>\n

\u2014 Ambassador Mike Waltz (@USAmbUN) July 2, 2026<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The fireworks capped a brutal day at the U.N., where Bahrain\u2019s Foreign Minister Abdullatif bin Rashid al-Zayani, laid out a horror-show tally: 808 Iranian missile and drone strikes on his tiny kingdom since late February, killing three civilians and wounding 465 more. Al-Zayani said the barrage \u2014 203 ballistic missiles and more than 600 armed drones \u2014 hammered homes, hospitals and infrastructure, and warned that an April strike on an ammonia tank came within a hair of triggering a toxic gas catastrophe.<\/p>\n

Waltz, addressing the council earlier, had warned that President Donald Trump\u2019s patience with Tehran was wearing thin, accusing the regime of strangling global trade by choking off the vital Strait of Hormuz \u2014 a chokepoint UN economists say threatens 61 developing nations. \u201cIran cannot, and we cannot allow it to, hold the world\u2019s economy hostage,\u201d Waltz declared, insisting a \u201ctransformative\u201d opportunity for ordinary Iranians remains on the table if Tehran changes course.<\/p>\n

Iranian envoy Iravani claimed Waltz\u2019s remarks were \u201clies and disinformation,\u201d insisting Iran\u2019s strikes were purely defensive retaliation against American bases used to launch attacks on Iranian soil. He argued Washington has no business dictating security in the Gulf, insisting only regional nations should call the shots.<\/p>\n
