The descendants of the Maccabees
Tells story of his grandfather being attacked by anti-Semites. “They beat him senseless. They left him for dead. And before he passed out covered in blood he said to himself, what a disgrace. The descendants of the Maccabees lie in the mud powerless to defend themselves. Promised himself if he lived he would take his family to Jewish homeland.”
“I stand here today as PM because my grandfather kept that promise.”
