In his speech, he assessed that Europe "is losing control over its identity, values, and responsibility to defend civilization from barbarism," emphasizing that Israel, as he stated, is taking on a crucial role in that fight. "Europe has forgotten much from the Holocaust. There is still much to learn, especially about the clear moral distinction between good and evil, which in decisive moments requires action, even war, in defense of life," Netanyahu stated. He added that Israel does not forget its eternal responsibility, and together with the U.S. and other allies, it defends not only itself but the entire world. He emphasized that Israel stands with the U.S. at the forefront of the free world. Speaking about relations with Washington, Netanyahu praised cooperation with U.S. President Donald Trump, noting that the two countries have conducted joint operations against Iran over the past year. "We have dealt a heavy blow to the evil regime in Iran. Had we not acted against their nuclear and military targets, places like Natanz, Fordow, and Isfahan would today evoke fear like the names of death camps," said Netanyahu, alluding to Nazi camps like Auschwitz. He concluded that the goal of such actions is to prevent scenarios where future generations would ask the question: "What if?", stressing that Israel acts to ensure a "safer future."
