Even the “anti-Israel is the new pro-Israel” camp knows that Netanyahu didn’t drive a “wedge” between Republicans and Democrats.
Attempts to draw comparisons between the Russia-Ukraine conflict and the Palestinian issue are patently false, malicious and manipulative, and should not be entertained.
Now that U.S. President Joe Biden has agreed to an even more dangerous nuclear deal, Israel must prepare to be scapegoated.
