Netanyahu condemns Corbyn for attending ceremony for Munich terrorists
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu condemns UK Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn for attending a ceremony honoring the Palestinian terrorists behind the 1972 Munich Olympic massacre.
Netanyahu also criticizes Corbyn for appearing to compare Israeli military rule in the West Bank to the Nazi occupation of Europe during World War II.
“The laying of a wreath by Jeremy Corbyn on the graves of the terrorist who perpetrated the Munich massacre and his comparison of Israel to the Nazis deserves unequivocal condemnation from everyone – left, right and everything in between,” Netanyahu’s office writes in a tweet.
