Bibi: We Will Fight with Our Fingernails If Necessary

By Al Ahed Staff, Agencies

“Israeli” Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a post on Thursday that “Israelis” will fight with their fingernails if necessary, to defeat their enemies.

Netanyahu's film statement came as the apartheid “Israeli” entity approached its 76th “Independence Day”, marked next week. His statement was also his first public comments since US President Joe Biden said he was withholding offensive weapons shipments to the entity.

"I made it clear to Bibi and the War Cabinet – you will not receive aid if you enter population centers in Rafah," Biden said in an interview on CNN. 

Benny Gantz a member of the war cabinet and a contender to the premiership slammed ministers in Netanyahu's coalition who attacked Biden.

"The partnership between the US and ‘Israel’ is a strategic one, and no less important, it is a partnership of values," Gantz said. "The United States stood by ‘Israel’ in its darkest hour, and the attacks from ungrateful and irresponsible ministers are made out of political motivations."

Gantz referred to the entity’s so-called “National Security” Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, among others, after he posted Biden (Heart) Hamas on X.

Gantz said he continued to have direct dialogue with American officials and believes the arms shipments would continue. "The US has a moral and strategic duty to provide ‘Israel’ with the tools needed to complete its mission," he said.

Earlier White House “National Security: Spokesperson John Kirby said the Biden administration was not backing away from its support of the apartheid “Israeli” entity but repeated the position that an extensive assault on Rafah, will not advance the objective of defeating the Hamas.
