Original Note:
Contrary to OP's claim, Netanyahu's quote from Deuteronomy 25:17 - "Remember what Amalek did to you"¹ - has nothing to do with "Biblical injunction to kill", but is rather often used as a metaphoric reference to Holocaust - for example, on Amalek Monument in Hague². ¹ https://www.bible.com/bible/compare/DEU.25.17-18 ² https://bkdh.nl/en/kunstwerken/amalek-monument/
