I am a Jew. For me, to be a Jew is the most important thing. This strong Jewish identity is a central theme in my life and will be the execution of my responsibilities as prime minister. I want to work to strengthen the relationship between Israel and Jews all over the world. I have established a national unity government to unite the people of Israel, but unity among Jews is vital worldwide.
Unity is our source of strength.
The Jewish people have one small, tiny country. It is the only place in the world where Jews have the right and the capability to defend themselves by themselves. For 2,000 years we had to rely on others for our defense. Now we control our own destiny. Exercising these rights strengthens the security of Jews everywhere in the world.
