The world should not abandon any of the hostages still trapped after they were first snatched from their families just because the truce has ended.
I am "a big friend of the Jewish people and Israel”.
Eradicating anti-Semitism has been a lifelong personal mission of mine as I am the son of a Nazi.
I have encountered a hatred of Jews in my own home when i bought a bodybuilding magazine as a teenager and my father disparaged it when he found out the publisher of the magazine was Jewish.
Years later, after I won the Mr. Universe and was invited to the US, which i later made my home, I called my father to tell him it was that same publisher who had made it all happen.
"From that moment on, I said to myself, I have to go and fight that, I have to go and speak out about hatred, I have to go and get involved in this issue.”
And the more I became a celebrity, the more I became a movie star and a bodybuilding star and all that, the more I felt like, I have another power, in being a public voice against anti-Semitism.
Finally Arnold said,
