The State of Israel respects all religions and strictly guarantees the rights of all its citizens, Mr Netanyahu said
Benjamin Netanyahu has joined a long list of international leaders to reject Donald Trump’s comments about Muslims, while championing Israel's "respect" for all religions and citizens' rights.
The Israeli Prime Minister released a statement saying he will still meet with the Republican Presidential candidate for previously scheduled talks later this month but does not “endorse his viewsâ€.
“Prime Minister Netanyahu rejects Donald Trump's recent remarks about Muslims,†the statement said.
The State of Israel respects all religions and strictly guarantees the rights of all its citizens.

Thank you for the update. No doubt in my mind that the media is indeed vile.
“So if you reject that sentence then you reject everything else you posted as coming from him.”
What I rejected was the headline in the article that was posted vs the actual content of the same article and the way the media spun it. The headline was totally unjustified based on the content. There was no mention of any tweets in the story.
Not only that but the excerpt was completely fabricated.
Thus my main points remain:
1. The MSM flagrantly distorts the actual story, especially in headlines since that’s all that most people read or remember
2. The poster was totally dishonest in fabricating the “excerpt”
Ok your points remain but the significant point that “Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu rejects Donald Trump’s recent remarks about Muslims.” is actually a genuine statement from his office also remains.
Yes it does seem to be from his office - whether he wrote it or a staff member did, you or I don’t know. Either way, though, I imagine he’s aware of it.
I really like Netanyahu but this is suicidal. Why didn’t he just say nothing?
Now that I clicked the link, it sounds as though Netanyahu was saying what he politically had to say and ABC is (SURPRISE) twisting what he actually said:
“The state of Israel respects all religions and strictly guarantees the rights of all its citizens,” the statement said. “At the same time, Israel is fighting against militant Islam that targets Muslims, Christians and Jews alike and threatens the entire world.”
Nah, this move from BiBi has nothing to do with Obama.
Netanyahu has hitched his star to the GOPe.
