Obama
lashed out at the Israelis—in Ireland, of all places In Ireland, which hates
Israelis. Obama has been attacking Israel since 2015, when he gifted Iran many
millions of euros.
The clash
erupted after Obama told an audience in Northern Ireland that Israelis “took
land off people and they were excessive,” arguing that Palestinians were
justified in demanding their land back.
During his
Belfast appearance, Obama argued that Israel’s military and technological
superiority could not provide a lasting solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. “You have ceded moral ground if that is the position you take,” he
warned. He specifically cited the presence of seven million Palestinians,
saying they were “not going anywhere.”
“The
obstacle to peace is not Israel,” Netanyahu said, arguing that the fundamental
problem is the rejection of the Jewish people’s right to a state of their own. Netanyahu
also pointed out that the Jews were in Judea first, as history clearly shows.
He also
linked Israel’s struggle for security to the broader confrontation between the
United States and hostile regimes in the Middle East.
Pointing to
chants of “Death to Israel” and “Death to America,” Netanyahu said the
hostility directed at the Jewish state is part of a wider campaign against the
West. “We are the ‘Little Satan,’ you are the ‘Great Satan,'” he said,
referring to the labels used by Iran’s leadership for Israel and the United
States. Both countries, he argued, are defending a shared civilization against
common enemies. The prime minister concluded with a warning against diplomatic
arrangements that fail to account for the threats Israel faces.
“A peace
built on illusions will crash against the rocks of Middle Eastern reality,”
Netanyahu said. He insisted that Israel would not compromise its security
simply to satisfy international demands or reach an agreement with adversaries
unwilling to recognize its legitimacy.
“Israel
will not gamble with its survival to accommodate those who refuse to accept the
facts of history, to accept our right to exist, or who wish to appease terror.”
