Netanyahu’s note to successor Bennett revealed: ‘Be right back!’
Times of Israel ^ | 11/4/22

When Naftali Bennett took over Israel’s premiership from Benjamin Netanyahu in June of 2021, the Likud leader was famously derisive and dismissive of his successor, questioning the legitimacy of his government and promising to return to power quickly.

Some commentators criticized Netanyahu then for his apparent lack of decorum, noting that previous transfers of power had been more courteous.

Now, a little more than a year later and with Netanyahu set to return to the premiership, a new detail has emerged from that handover.

Channel 12 news on Friday published a photo of a note that was left for Bennett on the desk of the Prime Minister’s Office when he arrived there to take over.

The note, scribbled in blue pen, included a simple drawing of an Israeli flag, with its Star of David, and the words: “Be right back!”

“I hope Trump left Biden a note like this.”

Correct sentiment, except Jiao Bidementia would have simply been befuddled as usual thinking it was from his ‘Doctor’ Mrs. Bidementia.

I don’t. He raced to be the first world leader to line up with Biden. The steal was only 3 hours old when he did so. Obrador of Mexico waited until the electoral college voted in December.

And I am trying hard to think of anything Netanyahu has ever done for America. He seems like just another foreigner with his hand stretched out for our cash. But the minute he should have stood with America and a president who did more for Israel than any other... he turned tail an fled like a coward.

Just another Ivy League grifter.

America isn’t Trump and Israeli-US relations are more than Netanyahu’s preferences for the GOP

Netanyahu got his final degree at MIT, as I did. Unlike the school up the river founded by a slave owner, MIT is NOT part of the "Ivy League".

Thus I take exception to the phrase "Ivy League grifter".
