Is Netanyahu correct in equating the actions of the Arabs today with the actions of the Nazis before World War II? Isn’t that a bit of an exaggeration? Yes, the Arabs generally speaking certainly have no love for the Jewish State. But do they actually want to kill the Jewish people like the Nazis did?

I want to talk to you about appeasement then and appeasement now.
Before World War Two, Western countries tried to appease Hitler. He said, “Just give me a piece of Czechoslovakia, and I’ll make peace with you.” They cowered, they bowed, they yielded. They gave… pic.twitter.com/vyVvTeUfFz
The truth is that the Arabs in Israel are not exactly like the Nazis in pre-World War II. They are worse. They are fiercer. And they are more religious. They view the killing of the Jewish people as a religious obligation. The fact that the Arabs attacked on October 7th did not shock everyone. But the fierceness, brutality and downright disgusting actions of masses of Arabs was indeed a shocker to nearly everybody.
Netanyahu did not always refer to the actions of Hamas and the Palestinian Authority as being Nazi-like. That is a more recent phenomenon as he has also come to accept the fact that no matter what happens, the Jew-haters will criticize the Jewish State. So, he has adopted the most straightforward approach – stick to the truth. He has stopped trying to split hairs with diplomatic language.
He is 100% right about appeasement. It simply does not work.
