Netanyahu: Anti-Israel caricatures undermine legitimacy of a Jewish state
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleIn an apparent reference to The New York Times, Netanyahu says that publishing “caricatures of hate towards Israel undermines the legitimacy of the Jewish state.”
Netanyahu makes the remarks during his Holocaust Remembrance Day speech at Yad Vashem.
Last week, The New York Times’ international edition published a political cartoon depicting Netanyahu as a dog wearing a Star of David collar and leading a blind and skullcap-wearing Donald Trump.
The Times has since apologized, calling the image “offensive,” and vowing to refrain from publishing such bigoted cartoons again.
