Since the beginning of the Gaza war almost a year and a half ago, Israel has been heavily criticized internationally. At Christmas, Netanyahu thanks Christian friends and threatens enemies.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed Christians around the world in a Christmas message. “At a time when Israel is fighting on seven fronts, we deeply appreciate the steadfast support of our Christian friends,” Netanyahu said, according to his office.
“We seek peace with all those who want peace with us, but we will do everything to defend the only Jewish state,” Netanyahu said. “Israel leads the world in the fight against the forces of evil and tyranny, but our fight is not over yet,” he said. “From Jerusalem, the city of peace, I wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.”
Since the Hamas attack on October 7, 2023, Israel has been fighting against its arch-enemy Iran’s so-called axis of resistance in the region. Of Tehran’s other allies, only the Houthi rebels are now attacking Israel.
