Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu greeted his country on the 100th day of the Gaza War once again committed to a fight “until complete victory”.. The state of Israel, its armed forces and security services waged a “moral and just war that is second to none, against the Hamas monsters, the new Nazis,” said the head of government, who is under domestic political pressure, on Saturday. “Nobody will stop us”said Netanyahu, referring to the genocide lawsuit filed by South Africa at the International Court of Justice in The Hague. Netanyahu had thanked German Chancellor Olaf Scholz for Germany’s clear rejection of the genocide claim.

“The hypocritical attack in The Hague against the state of the Jews, which arose from the ashes of the Holocaust, at the behest of those who came to commit another Holocaust against the Jews, is a moral low point in the history of nations.”said Netanyahu. The army found copies of Adolf Hitler’s “Mein Kampf” in the Hamas tunnels under the Gaza Strip.

“It is not for nothing that German Chancellor Scholz, after seeing the atrocities of the October 7 massacre, said: ‘Hamas are the new Nazis,'” Netanyahu said. At a joint press conference with Netanyahu on October 17 on Tel However, Aviv did not say this to Scholz in front of the journalists, but to Netanyahu himself. When asked on Sunday, a German government spokesman said that Scholz had “never used this formulation himself.”

A massacre by Hamas and other extremist organizations in southern Israel with 1,200 deaths and the abduction of civilians and soldiers into the Gaza Strip triggered the Gaza war on October 7th. Since then, Israel’s military has launched massive air strikes and a ground offensive against Hamas. Netanyahu’s popularity plummeted after the unprecedented attack. The public in his country accuses him of neglecting the security forces’ preparations for such an attack.

“We will continue the war to the end – to complete victory, until we have achieved all of our goals: eliminating Hamas, returning all of our hostages and ensuring that the Gaza Strip will never again pose a threat to Israel,” Netanyahu said. It is also a war against “the axis of evil, led by Iran and its three proxies,” said the head of government, citing not only Hamas but also the Shiite militia Hezbollah in Lebanon and the Shiite Houthi rebels in Yemen.
