Yesterday (Monday), Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu strongly rejected the ceasefire with Hamas in a speech he delivered to journalists, according to the German News Agency.
Netanyahu said: “Just as the United States did not agree to a ceasefire after the bombing of Pearl Harbor or after the terrorist attack on 9/11, Israel will not agree to a cessation of hostilities with (Hamas) after the horrific attacks on October 7.”
Netanyahu explained, “Calls for a ceasefire are calls for Israel to surrender to Hamas, surrender to terrorism, and surrender to barbarism. That won't happen... The Bible says there is a time for peace and a time for war. “This is the time of war, the war for a common future.”
Netanyahu called on all civilized countries to stand with Israel in demanding the immediate and unconditional release of the hostages and to draw a dividing line between the forces of civilization and the forces of barbarism. He added, "It is time for everyone to decide where they stand."
