Netanyahu: All of Israel is shocked by the slaughter in Orlando

Commenting on the previous day's mass shooting at a nightclub in Florida, Israeli Prime Minister Benyamin Netanyahu said Monday at the start of a weekly Cabinet meeting that "We are all shocked by the horrific massacre in Orlando. In the name of the government and the citizens of Israel, I would like to express again our condolences to the American people and to the families (of the casualties) at this especially difficult and tragic time. This terror threatens the entire world, and it is necessary, first of all, that the enlightened countries of the world unite forcefully to fight it. We stand shoulder to shoulder with the American people."
