Israel's Deputy Foreign Minister's steadfast in condemning Prime Minister Luxon for saying her leader, Benjamin Netanyahu, has lost the plot over Gaza. 

Chris Luxon made the comment yesterday and says he's voicing a global sentiment.

Sharren Haskel posted saying New Zealand's worst enemies are cats and possums, so it can't understand the threat from Hamas.

Today, she says she stands with Netanyahu on Gaza - and it's the UN that's failed. 

"And no matter how much we've been trying to work together, the Secretary General of the UN will turn it into a political issue."
