Speaking at the Yad Labanim ceremony in Jerusalem ahead of Israel’s Memorial Day, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu offers an inclusive message, in the presence of Druze and Bedouin leaders.
“The strong commitment to our country encompasses all of our fighters in this difficult war,” he says, “Jews, Druze, Christians, Muslims, Bedouins, Circassians.”
About the war on Hamas, Netanyahu says, “We have completed about half of it, but we are committed to completing this sacred task.”
“We all fight together. Because this is the only way to defeat the monsters of Hamas, who want to destroy us.”
