Lazar Berman is The Times of Israel's diplomatic reporter
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s speech tomorrow will blast countries for recognizing a Palestinian state, arguing that it benefits Hamas, a source familiar with the details tells The Times of Israel.
Netanyahu’s ire will be focused primarily on France, according to the source.
He will also pivot to the opportunities in a new Middle East after the defeat of Hamas, especially with the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia.
Netanyahu, not surprisingly, will express Israel’s gratitude to US President Donald Trump.
