Netanyahu has spoken to Trump three times since the US elections
Nov. 10 () –
The Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, has linked the incidents that occurred last Thursday in Amsterdam coinciding with the soccer match between Ajax and Maccabi Tel Aviv with the complaints against Israel presented to the International Court of Justice (ICJ) for genocide in the Strip. of Gaza or the investigation by the International Criminal Court (ICC), also based in The Hague, for war crimes and crimes against humanity.
“A clear line connects two anti-Semitic attacks against Israel that recently occurred on Dutch soil: the criminal legal attack against Israel at the international court in The Hague and the violent criminal attack against Israeli citizens on the streets of Amsterdam,” he said in a message from video published on networks.
For Netanyahu, “in both cases there is a dangerous anti-Semitism that seeks to leave the Jews and their country defenseless (…) to deny our country the right to defend itself, to deny its citizens their right to life,” he added.
“We have learned something from history: rampant attacks that begin with Jews never end with Jews,” he warned before urging all governments to act decisively against anti-Semitism. “In any case, we are going to do whatever is necessary to protect ourselves and our citizens. We will never allow the horrors of history to be repeated. We will never surrender, neither to anti-Semitism nor to terrorism,” he stressed.
Furthermore, Netanyahu revealed this Sunday that he has had three telephone conversations with Donald Trump since the US presidential elections last Tuesday, in which Trump secured his return to the White House.
These contacts “were designed to further strengthen the strong alliance between Israel and the United States.” “We look in the eyes of the Iranian threat with all its components and the risk it implies. We also see great opportunities for Israel with the expansion of peace and in other areas, Netanyahu said. The Israeli leader stressed that the contacts have been “good and very important.”
