“Israel’s foreign minister denounced Democratic front-runner Bernie Sanders on Wednesday for what he called his ‘horrifying comment’ about Jerusalem, saying that those who support Israel would not back Sanders’ presidential candidacy after such remarks,” the AP reports.
“At a contentious Democratic debate on Tuesday night in South Carolina, Sanders labeled Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu a ‘reactionary racist’ and said he’d consider reversing President Trump’s move of the U.S. Embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.”
“In a daring foray into American domestic politics, Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz said there was a not a Jew in the world who ‘hasn’t dreamed of Jerusalem’ and Sanders words were so severe that he had no choice but to retort.”
