C. Bulent Yildirim, president of the so-called ‘Islamic charity’ IHH
Quote number 1: This quote was made following Netanyahu’s extremely successful trip to Washington and his brilliant articulation of the Israel’s position.
“[Netanyahu’s] statement following the Obama speech distorted reality and ignored the president’s words . . . [his] lecture at the White House was good in political terms, yet the style insulted the president and his people. . .I’m discovering here a very disturbing picture in respect to Israel-US ties. The situation at this time is such that Administration officials don’t want to hear of Netanyahu and speak about him with genuine hostility. . . Israel must openly recognize a Palestinian state and assert that the border issue will be determined via negotiations, which must start at this time already.” Who said it?
