Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu revealed in an exclusive interview with C14 News that he warned French President Emmanuel Macron on October 7, 2023, the day of the Hamas attack, that the terrorist organization could reach the streets of Paris if not stopped in Israel. Netanyahu stated that Macron had requested an immediate ceasefire and a diplomatic solution to the conflict. However, Netanyahu rejected this, describing Hamas as "monsters" and "neo-Nazis," asserting that such groups are not dealt with through diplomacy but must be "destroyed."
Netanyahu recounted telling Macron, "If we don't stop Hamas here, you will see them on the streets of Paris." He now believes this warning is coming to fruition amidst the current unrest in France. The Prime Minister suggested that the ongoing events in France might lead to a political shift in the country and potentially improve relations between France and Israel.
During the interview, Netanyahu drew parallels between fighting Hamas and fighting the Nazis in World War II, stating that the SS was not resolved through diplomacy and neither is Hamas. He further characterized Hamas as being similar to, or even worse than, ISIS.
When asked if Macron had learned his lesson, Netanyahu commented that the French people are witnessing the events unfolding in their streets, which could lead to a change in France's political composition. He also expressed that a potential right-wing government in France could improve bilateral relations with Israel, as they would recognize a shared threat and common interests against a mutual enemy.
