He cautioned the assassination attempt was much more than an assault on just one man.
“This wasn’t just an attack on Donald Trump. This was an attack on a candidate for the presidency of the United States. This was an attack on America. It was an attack on democracy, it was an attack on all the democracies,” Netanyahu declared.
During Sunday’s cabinet meeting, the ministers watched a video of people within Israel calling for the murder of public officials in general, and the prime minister in particular.
Noting that commentators in the U.S. pointed to previous expressions of violence against Trump before the shooting, Netanyahu explained that Israel is experiencing similar calls to incitement.
He stated, “We are witnessing a flood of explicit threats of murder and violence against the prime minister and members of his family and against ministers and public officials. These are not just flagrant criminal offenses, they constitute a direct and explicit threat to democracy.”
