So instead of condemning Israel, let us thank it.

“Israel defends democracy, human rights, and the values we all share,” he said in his address. “Instead of attacking Israel, we need to  support Israel — and if we can’t do nothing, please let us not attack Israel.

Israel is the only democracy in the Middle East — a country that truly protects women’s rights, freedom, and the rule of law. While we’re arguing, Israel is acting. It is defending not only itself  — but all of us.”
