JERUSALEM - Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Wednesday Bernie Sanders was wrong to call him a racist during a debate among contenders for the U.S. Democratic presidential nomination, but shied away from attacking the senator in return.

Sanders, who has been critical of the right-wing leader’s policy toward Palestinians, described Netanyahu as “a reactionary racist who is now running” Israel. Netanyahu had a contentious relationship with Barack Obama, Republican Donald Trump’s predecessor as president, with the Iranian nuclear deal and Israel’s settlement policy in the occupied West Bank main areas of friction.

The right-wing Likud party leader says his main challenger, former general Benny Gantz, would need the support of an Arab party to form a governing coalition, effectively tying his hands in pursuing any military action in the region.

... Read our thoughts and our lips : Netanyahu always has been a racist and a murderer hiding behind a presidency...

If only Bebe could run for President in the US

Bibi, as most Israelis, would rather see every American die in a fire before a single a single hair was disturbed on their heads. They hate you while they love those dead American soldiers fighting their tribal wars. We are not human to them.

. . Sanders Is Right - NetanYAHOO, Is DISGUSTING!!!! . .

Daily apartheid Israel land grabber propaganda

Why do these “leaders” all have bad hair?!

He is a MF racist!

He is worse than a racist, he is a terrorist, but Sanders chose a diplomatic word.

Netanyahu is no more racist than the leaders of the Arab world.

I'm with Sanders. Netanyahu is a horrible human being.

He's more of a terrorists than a racist. Killing of journalist and children should see him at The Hague.

Bitter truth

He handles it very diplomatically. He realizes that he may have to work with Sanders in the future.
