FORMER NYC MAYOR GIULIANI SAYS ISRAELI LEADERS DON’T WANT A HILLARY CLINTON PRESIDENCY:
Posted on
Israeli leaders prefer Donald Trump to be the next president of the USA rather than Hillary Clinton, according to former NY City mayor Rudy Giuliani. "I’ve talked to the members of the Israeli government at the highest levels. I know who they want elected here. It’s not Hillary Clinton. It’s not Obama 3,” Giuliani said in an interview for the Washington Post at the recent Republican National Convention. Giuliani has been a close friend of PM Benjamin Netanyahu for over 20 years, and the two met last March at the Prime Minister's Office in Jerusalem. While he refused to specifically say Netanyahu supported Trump, Giuliani stated, "I’ve known Bibi almost as long as I’ve known Donald, 25 years. I can’t speak for Bibi, but there is no question Donald Trump and a Republican administration would be much better for Israel. They are politically aware enough to know that if Hillary gets elected, she is going to go further to her left, to protect her left flank against Elizabeth Warren,” Giuliani said of Israel's political leaders. "They know she’s going to start the two-state solution thing again and cave in to the Palestinians. They realize Donald Trump can say Islamic terrorism, can stand up to it. So there’s no question he would be better for the state of Israel than Hillary.” (J.Post)
