This speech, given by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on December 6, was not directly addressed to Obama. However, it’s clear that he understands what the American president does not: radical Islamic terrorism must be defeated. This is the speech Obama should have given after San Bernardino.
In this address, Netanyahu dispels myths about the cause of terrorism, outlines the historic context of the Middle East turmoil, and lays out a strong plan to protect the West and Israel from this threat.
He also exposes the true obstacle to peace between Israel and the Palestinians. Here’s a hint: it’s not a lack of desire for peace or a willingness to compromise on Israel’s behalf.
