Former President Donald Trump marked the one-year anniversary of the October 7 Hamas raid on Israel, where 1,200 lives were lost, by making a "sacred vow" during a remembrance event. Trump promised unwavering support to Israel, stating, "Never again," a phrase often associated with the Holocaust and the Jewish community.
The attack by Hamas triggered a conflict between the Israel Defense Forces and Hamas, leading to ongoing military actions in Gaza. Trump expressed solidarity with those affected by the violence, offering prayers for the hostages still held by Hamas. “We pray that through the darkness, they know that we have not forgotten them,” he said, emphasizing the hope that they would soon return home safely.
Trump also linked the upcoming U.S. election on November 5 to the future of both the United States and Israel, calling it "the most important day in the history of our country" and implying it would be equally significant for Israel.
