Secretary of State Blinken got personal invoking his own family’s experience with the Holocaust during a press conference with Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu in Tel Aviv. Blinken saying "I come before you not only as the United States Secretary of State, but also as a Jew" and adding “I understand on a personal level, the harrowing echoes that Hamas' massacres carry for Israeli Jews, indeed, for Jews everywhere.”
Blinken saying “In this moment, where evil, hatred and madness have once more taken so many innocent lives, we must stand together, and resolve to confront what is worst among humanity with what is best."
Blinken also told Netanyahu “As long as America exists…we will always be there by your side.”
