Netanyahu Tells Israeli Government to Exercise Caution on Russia: Focus on Iran
Breitbart ^ | 02/28/2022 | Deborah Brand

Former Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday said Israel should be more cautious about its attitude to the Russian-Ukrainian conflict and instead put its focus on the Iran nuclear deal, which was more of an “existential security threat.”

“In days like these, it’s advisable to take positions with the utmost caution,” Netanyahu said at the opening of Monday’s Likud faction meeting according to a translation of his remarks by The Times of Israel. “Unfortunately, in the last few days we’ve heard too many unnecessary expressions and too many false predictions.”

On FR, this makes Netanyahu a Putin stooge. I think many here would prefer some jingoistic general warfare to a negotiated settlement that recognizes the reality of the situation.

Netanyahu knows the God of Israel has their flank and a few surprises for Magog. No need to worry about them.

He is guarding Israel’s interests. Wasn’t he the first to congratulate Biden?

I’ll neither forget nor forgive the way Bibi rushed to be among the first out of the gate to start kissing Biden’s@$ after the 2020 election was called. I get it that he’s putting his country first, but after the way Trump was such a good friend to Israel for four years, Netanyahu could have toned it down a bit and spared us his profuse praise of Dementia Joe and their warm relationship. With that said, he’s right that the Ukraine-Russia war isn’t Israel’s problem.

I agree but I also cut him some slack..

He KNOWS as well as we do that Plugs isn’t running anything. I believe it was a show for the benefit of President Corpse’s masters - who could make things difficult for Israel.

I was going to say the same thing. Netanyahu is indeed a very wise man, and I would have said that last week before Putin invaded Ukraine.

Bibi understands nuance and the large picture. He knows Iran must be Israel’s first priortity. He does not play to the media or bumper stickers. He is indeed a wise man.
