“We Will Always Be By Your Side”: US Ensures Support To Israel

Assuring Washington’s support to Israel at a time when the country is fighting a war against Hamas, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said that as long as America exists, Israel will never have to defend itself alone.

At joint press with Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu today, Blinken vowed his support to Tel Aviv and also lauded the bravery of Israeli citizens amid the ongoing conflict that has claimed the lives of over 1,300 Israelis.

“The message that I bring to Israel is this — you may be strong enough on your own to defend yourself, but as long as America exists, you will never, ever have to. We will always be there by your side,” quoted Blinken.

“That’s the message that President Joe Biden delivered to the prime minister from the moment that this crisis began,” he added.

Blinkin said, “Babies slaughtered, bodies desecrated, young people burnt alive, women raped, parents executed in front of their children– how are we even to understand this? To digest this? And yet, at the same time, we have been shocked by the depravity of Hamas. We have also been inspired by the bravery of Israeli citizens…The grandfather who drove over an hour to a kibbutz under siege armed only with a pistol and rescued his kids and grandkids…the mother who died shielding her teenage son with her body, giving her life to save his. Giving him life for a second time. The volunteer security teams on the kibbutzes who swiftly rallied to defend their friends and neighbours despite being heavily outnumbered.”
