Netanyahu confidants blast Liberman

In a swift response to Liberman’s comments, Hebrew media quote a statement attributed to “Netayahu confidants” poking fun at the Yisrael Beytenu leader’s foreign birth and alluding to past corruption suspicions against him.

“Someone who suggests a coin toss forgets that he is not in a casino in Moldova or Vienna.”

Liberman was born in Moldova in 1958.

The mention of Vienna was presumably a reference to Austrian billionaire Martin Schlaff, from whom Liberman was at one time suspected of taking bribes.
