“Was the United States wrong?”
prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu He has no reason to expect hostile reception Fox News.
After all, he was warmly welcomed in the halls of Congress by both Democrats and Republicans. The Republican Party is more stable than its nominal opposition to supporting Israel, so it is expected that the conservative media giant will provide happy questions and the soft ball.
This is not what the Israeli leader got when he sat with Bret Bayer Sunday. The anchor has repeatedly pushed Netanyahu’s justifications for missile strikes at Iran. Several days after the missile exchange between Israel and IranBayer was criticizing Netanyahu’s assertion that his “preventive strike” is necessary.
