Netanyahu: Instead of Pressuring Israel, Pressure Hamas and Its Patron - Iran


(Prime Minister's Office) Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told the Cabinet on Sunday: "In the international community, there are those who are trying to stop the war now....If we stop the war now, before all of its goals are achieved, this means that Israel will have lost the war, and this we will not allow....No international pressure will stop us from realizing all of the goals of the war: Eliminating Hamas, freeing all of our hostages and ensuring that Gaza never again constitutes a threat to Israel." "In order to do this, we will operate in Rafah. This is the only way to eliminate Hamas' murderous brigades, and this is the only way to use the military pressure necessary to free all of our hostages." "To our friends in the international community, I say: Are your memories that short? Have you so quickly forgotten Oct. 7, the most horrific massacre of Jews since the Holocaust? Are you so quick to deny Israel the right to defend itself against the Hamas monsters? Have you so quickly lost your moral consciences? Instead of pressuring Israel, which is fighting a war, the justice of which is unparalleled, against an enemy of unparalleled brutality, apply your pressure to Hamas and its patron - Iran. It is they who constitute a danger to the region and to the entire world."
