Bibi is grasping at straws.
It should surprise no one that Netanyahu is willing to sacrifice himself to prevent Russia and Israel going to war which would undoubtedly start off a nuclear world war that would erase humanity.
Netanyahu is saving not just his country but the world.
Folks, this is a very significant statement! Netanyahu, and Putin, are acknowledging how close the world is to seeing the fulfillment of Ezekiel 38-39. These biblical chapters foretell a future invasion of Israel by Russia, Iran, and Turkey. The God of Israel, Jesus Christ, intervenes and destroys their armies. The next few years will be interesting...
As far as that goes, if Donald Trump was not the President of the United States, The United States and Russia would have engaged in a shooting war. The, according to the media, Smartest Woman in The World fully intended to go to war with Russia if the election in 2016 had gone her way.
It’s one thing to say that Netanyahu’s experience and line of communication with Putin helped keep things cool. That’s quite reasonable. It’s also quite possible that Putin said that to Netanyahu as a way of saying thank you for his statesmanship over the whole thing. It’s quite another to claim that only Netanyahu could have avoided war under the circumstances. Is he even claiming that? It sounds like Bibi is just pointing out his foreign policy bona fides. Nothing strange about that in the political realm.
If not for Donald Trump being President, we would have been at war with Russia. Hillary Clinton was foaming at the mouth to shoot down Russian planes, and lots of GOPe types would have jumped at the chance to fight the Russkies.
Israel’s stake is quite comical
Careful, Bibi.
American Russophobia necons will ally with liberals to bark at you.
Never trust Putin...
Both countries are nuclear powers therefore there won’t be a no war ever
Not a real one at least
Many Biblical scholars believe Russia will be a part of the offensive that eventually invades Israel. This is normal thinking in Biblical Theology.

We're lucky we got out of there.
