Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu spoke at the national ceremony in honor of the anniversary of the passing of Israel’s first Prime Minister, David Ben Gurion. Netanyahu said that “It’s only thing that they are blaming us instead of the terrorists for the terrorism directed at us, but what is even more absurd is that they are blaming us for the terrorism directed at the French, as inferred from the words of Sweden’s Foreign Minister this week. What blindness.”

Netanyahu added that “Instead of fighting against what is happening in Europe, or in Syria, or in Iran, there are sources within the European Union who have decided to have a run at the State of Israel and ignore 200 other territorial disputes all over the world.”
