Bondi Antisemitic Terror Sparks Netanyahu's Bold Remark 'No Jews, No United States'

Speaking at Jerusalem’s Western Wall during a Hanukkah ceremony, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu drew historical parallels while addressing rising antisemitic violence. Referring to the deadly Bondi Beach attack in Sydney—where two gunmen killed 15 people and injured many others—Netanyahu invoked Judeo-Christian values and connected Israel’s ongoing security challenges to global antisemitism. He went on to make a striking assertion, stating that without Jews, the United States would not exist, a remark now sparking debate over its potential impact on Israel–US relations.
