The Israeli PM made the statement during a meeting at the Prime Minister’s Office in Jerusalem, with a Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations delegation.
The meeting is happening few days after Iran launched missiles against Israel.
On Tuesday 1 October, 2024, Iran fired “200 ballistic missiles of various types at Israel”, which Daniel Hagari, Spokesperson of Israel Defence Forces (IDF) said, “hit central and southern Israel”.
According to the Prime Minister of Israel: “Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu met today, at the Prime Minister’s Office in Jerusalem, with a Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations delegation.
“Prime Minister Netanyahu:
“There is only one force in the world fighting Iran right now. There’s only one force in the world that stands in Iran’s way to conquest. And that force is Israel.
“If we don’t fight, we die. But it’s not only our fight, it’s the free world’s fight, and I would say the civilized world’s fight.
“There are quite a few dictatorships around the world, they’re all bad. But this dictatorship is different because it wants to throw us all back into a dark age.
“They want to destroy us and others. Us first, because we stand in their way of conquering the Middle East, but they want to subjugate the world and bring it back to dark ages.
“PM Netanyahu: “When you come in solidarity here, which is much appreciated, it’s not only solidarity with the Jewish people and the Jewish state, it’s with civilization.””
