Waking up to a New World Today After Netanyahu's Epic Speech in Congress
At a time of great uncertainty in the world, one world leader stood up yesterday and carved a path forward for the Western world, and that was the Prime Minister of the State of Israel - Benjamin Netanyahu.
I'm talking about Netanyahu's epic speech in Congress yesterday, where he received no less than 54 standing ovations, and was treated like royalty throughout. I've actually never seen any world leader being received so warmly, as he is always received in Washington.
Here is the full speech that will go down in history as the greatest speech of our time:
This has nothing to do with partisan politics - nothing to do with Left or Right, Democrat or Republican. This is about the good forces in the world uniting to prevail over the evil forces.
This is about the good forces in the world uniting to prevail over the evil forces.
The media wanted us to think that no one would show up for this historic event, but there was actually not an empty seat in the house. Not a single full minute went by in this speech without a long standing ovation for every single point being made.
I was thrilled to discover that the delegation guests included Douglas Murray who has done so much to dispel the lies being told about Israel and he continues to lift our entire country, and Tesla founder Elon Musk was right next to him - both were seated behind rescued hostage Noa Argamani who was also given a long standing ovation. Some of our brave soldiers were there to show the world the high motivation and incredible resilience of our army! They also received standing ovations.
Carving a Path Forward Together
The highlight of Netanyahu's speech was how he kept emphasizing that Israel isn't only fighting for itself - it's fighting to protect the free world! He strengthened the Israel-US bond by tying our fates together, and demonstrating how dependent we are on one another for our good future.
He gave a very global overview of the problem, but beyond the pure military moves that need to be made - everything else is theoretical at this stage.
Why?

We still haven't figured out to create unity and cohesion in our societies - not in Israel and not in the US. But we're starting to see how none of us can do this alone. Israel can't fight this evil alone, and neither can the US without having Israel securing the Middle East. And the best way to fight this barbaric enemy that wants to control all of humanity - is to unite. When we're united we have everything we need to defeat evil.
One of the most memorable moments that received tons of applause -
“We help keep Americans’ boots off the ground,” Netanyahu thundered, imploring Congress to expedite the transfer to Israel of billions of dollars in U.S. weapons. “Give us the tools faster, and we’ll finish the job faster,” he said. The Washington Post
Americans liked the idea of Israel fighting this battle so that they don't have to get involved and engage directly by bringing soldiers in. Our soldiers are extremely motivated to squash this evil to make sure this never happens again, but with America's unwavering support we can accelerate this process.
Some more excerpts from the full transcript of his speech -
Last month, I heard a revealing comment, ostensibly about the war in Gaza, but about something else. It came from the foreign minister of Iran's proxy, Hezbollah, and he said this: “This is not a war with Israel. Israel,” he said, “is merely a tool. The main war, the real war, is with America.”??
Iran's regime has been fighting America from the moment it came to power. In 1979, it stormed the American embassy, it held scores of Americans hostage for 444 days. Since then, Iran's terrorist proxies have targeted America in the Middle East and beyond. In Beirut, they killed 241 U.S. servicemen. In Africa, they bombed American embassies. In Iraq, they supplied explosives to maim and kill thousands of American soldiers. In America, they actually sent death squads. They sent death squads here to murder a former secretary of state and a former national security adviser. And as we recently learned, they even brazenly threatened to assassinate President Trump.??But Iran understands that to truly challenge America, it must first conquer the Middle East. And for this it uses its many proxies, including the Houthis, Hezbollah and Hamas.
Yet in the heart of the Middle East, standing in Iran's way, is one proud pro-American democracy—my country, the State of Israel.?
Yet in the heart of the Middle East, standing in Iran's way, is one proud pro-American democracy—my country, the State of Israel.?
That's why the mobs in Tehran chant “Death to Israel” before they chant “Death to America.” For Iran Israel is first, America is next. So, when Israel fights Hamas, we're fighting Iran. When we fight Hezbollah, we're fighting Iran. When we fight the Houthis, we're fighting Iran. And when we fight Iran, we're fighting the most radical and murderous enemy of the United States of America.??
And one more thing. When Israel acts to prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons, nuclear weapons that could destroy Israel and threaten every American city, every city that you come from, we're not only protecting ourselves. We're protecting you.?My friends,??If you remember one thing, one thing from this speech, remember this: Our enemies are your enemies, our fight is your fight, and our victory will be your victory.

4 个月Josia I really enjoyed hearing this powerful speech by Prime Minister Netanyahu that you shared in your article. So many stories of courage and bravery. Listening to this reminds me of the hope that all people around the globe should have of better days, of light out of darkness, of order out of chaos and intentionally living for goodness, to lift up and bless everyone around us. Because of our impact in the earth everyone around us should and will prosper. The best leaders continually bring hope and stir up their people to unity and bravery just like he did. I especially loved his quote from the scriptures in Numbers 23:24 that we will "Rise like lions". Here's to more and more bravery and unity and indeed rising like lions. Thank you for sharing!
Agree 100%!
