נתניהו: האנטישמיות שהניעה את הרצל לייסד את הציונות עדיין קיימת

הערכה

Netanyahu used the annual memorial for Theodor Herzl to frame contemporary antisemitism as a continuation of the forces that originally motivated Zionist state-building. His remarks link past persecution to current Israeli policy, arguing that a sovereign Jewish state remains the necessary response. The speech reinforces a longstanding government position that external hostility validates the project of Jewish self-defense and national self-determination.
