The statement was that Jewish people would not be safe anywhere without Israel
There are Jewish people living safely in many parts of the world, and those people are protected by the communities they live as a part of.
The irony is that the statement was made to Jewish people in such a community outside of Israel. The other bit of irony is that statements like this are further divisions. Divisions that make life unsafe for everyone
There are millions of Jews in Israel (or their children), right now, who are there because they were forcibly expelled from other Arab countries in the Middle East.
Why do you think there’s a 3000 year old synagogue in Aleppo, and only around four Jews in all of Syria?
I would like to bring a counter point for you to consider.
When I put all my money in a bank, I have a guaranty from a regulatory body /government that in case of bankruptcy I will still get my money back, even if the bank goes bust.
This is similar for Jews around the world - Israel is an insurance policy. If your local country starts leaning towards fascism and looking for a scapegoat (which is usually Jews), then you’d have the option to go to Israel immediately. Because historically they’ve seen and still see how refugees are being treated and not welcome globally.

That’s a great plan, since Jews are completely safe and definitely not in any danger in Israel.
… to a bunch of Jews inside the United States.
None of whom realize the fucking irony.
Please explain the irony.
Asking for a friend.

Lmao yeah I see.

they do, oh sadly they do…
while the belligerent actions of the country make every Jew inside and outside of Israel less safe.
You’d think Bibi would’ve made it clear enough with this latest fiasco that clinging to a jingoist ideology is generally the opposite of safety.
What kind of moon logic is this?
