Speaking alongside French President Emmanuel Macron about the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu compared the October 7 Hamas attack to the Holocaust. He emphasized the horrors committed in his speech by bringing up historical tragedies like Babyn Yar and Anne Frank.

“On October 7, Hamas waged war on Israel. It was the worst terrorist attack the world has known since 9/11, but for Israel, proportionately, it was like twenty 9/11s. It was the worst act of anti-Semitic violence since the holocaust” Benjamin Netanyahu said.
“It’s impossible to describe all of the horrors, but like Anne Frank, Jewish children hid in attics from these monsters, and they were found and butchered. As in Babi Yar, Jews were machine-gunned” he added.
“Hamas butchered, Hamas beheaded Hamas burned babies alive. Hamas raped, Hamas kidnapped – hostages, over 200 – babies, children, elderly, Holocaust survivors. We are in a war between barbarism and civilization” Netanyahu added.

Furthermore, Netanyahu argued that the Middle East, Europe, and the entire world are at risk from Hamas’s actions in addition to Jews.

He asserted, “We are committed to taking all necessary measures to dismantle Hamas in Gaza, including its terror infrastructure and political apparatus. Our priority is to secure the release of our hostages and minimize harm to Palestinian civilians.”
Netanyahu underscored the primary objective of the conflict as the destruction of Hamas. “Hamas must be destroyed,” he said.
Netanyahu’s statement came following his meeting with French President Emmanuel Macron.
