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 views”.

“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.

Netanyahu has to walk a fine line. What he personally thinks and what he says for Israel’s sake may be two entirely different things.

Also the LSM is a pack of vicious liars playing on the emotions via hyper canards and pc memes while they kick the truth to the curb. Trump has and will be vindicated-— these fools have their fleeting moment of propagandized ‘glory’ but it will turn to bitter in their guts soon enough.
We will delight when they eat the crow sushi.

I am assuming that no comment was actually required from him. Perhaps he should have remained silent on the issue.

There are Arabs/Muslims in the Knesset of the Israeli government. They were duly elected by the voters of Israel. These Muslims are not enemies of Israel, so Bibi stands up for them.

We have Muslim US Representatives. If they were to leave the country on vacation, maybe they could come back if Trump was president as he has changed his mind about US Muslim citizens coming back, but he changes his mind daily, so that is not certain. That is one problem with Trump, he is not certain about any of his ideas/positions.

Well, that’s a reasoned point. I’m not sure what the public pressure in Israel was, but it would seen it wouldn’t be very strong.

Israel does have a sizable Arab populace segment though.

There are political realities involved here.

Do you understand the retribution that the Muslim-In-Chief would bring down on Israel for backing Trump's play? Look at what that little fag Baghdad Josh dared to do over this.

And the little faggot OMuslim is definitely vengeful, aside from his natural Muslim hate for Israel. "ISIL", anyone?

I love that the only thing the media cares about right now is other peoples reaction to what Trump says. That really says something.

LOL! Somebody gets it!

“Nice wall ya got there Bibi—— and great screening/vetting methods too. Plus the IDF does a great job of keeping Israel safe mostly. So when Trump wants to do the same in quality protections here in the USA you excoriate him?”

I don’t get Bibi. I guess he’s not what I thought.

Trump never said anything about denying citizens their religious rights, including Muslims. He was only talking about immigration, and even that was about a moratorium to allow officials time to beef up the vetting system.

I’m sick of the issue being rewritten before it is ridiculed by everyone. Disagree and think that we should keep blindly allowing migrants to come over here from Islamic countries. Make that case. But don’t try to say that Trump was advocating anything against citizens.

Right. Netanyahu speaks his mind, and our vicious Muslim-Faggot-In-Chief wants payback.

Bibi is not stupid.

I won’t, but I would point out to the Right Honorable PM Netanyahu that

1) There is precedent in America for doing just this,
2) The House voted THAT DAY to do exactly what The Donald was suggesting, and
3) The media has lied about the original statement, outright.

No-win scenario for Trump supporters. Do they "Stand with Israel" and support "America's greatest ally, Benjamin Netanyahu, the leader of the free world" or do they continue to worship whatever comes out of Trump's mouth and trash anyone who disagrees with him?

Sad to watch, especially since so many were just recently crowing what good friends PM Netanyahu and Trump are and even how they expected Netanyahu to endorse Trump.

I felt that way when the news came out that Israeli's "conservative" government had passed one of the most liberal abortion policies in the world under his watch (free taxpayer funded abortions on demand for all women under 35) and Bibi didn't lift a finger to oppose it.

If I was president, I'd be giving him an earful about that. He may be 100% right about Iran, but his domestic policies are suicidal.
