Original Note:
Netanyahu did not refer to all Palestinians as Amalek; he referred specifically to Hamas. https://x.com/muhammadshehad2/status/1718376269954371897?s=20 The Bible refers to Amalekites as a "staunch enemy of the Israelites" who relentlessly attacked them without provocation especially when the Israelites could not defend themselves. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amalek https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Amalekites
