We hear you. We recognize your heroic efforts. We are on your side and we are here for you.
In the face of violence, harassment and intimidation, when masked cowards break windows and doors, when they attack the truth and manipulate history, together we stand firm. Together, we will continue to build a prosperous and vibrant nation.*
While chanting the Intifada and the genocide, we will work – together – to free our abductees, held by Hamas, and fight for civil liberties and our right to believe and belong, for the right to live proudly, in peace and security as Jews. , as Israelis – everywhere.*
Next week, the Jewish people will celebrate Holocaust Day. We will speak of the dark times of the past and remember the miracle of our rebirth: in our ancient homeland, in the Jewish and democratic State of Israel and in the entire Jewish world.
Together we will win.
Faced with this frightening rise in anti-Semitism: do not be afraid. Be proud. Be strong for your freedom. The State of Israel stands with you. The State of Israel takes care of you.
