PM: Wallstrom remarks on ‘extrajudicial killings’ are outrageous

Netanyahu blasts Swedish FM Margot Wallstrom for saying that Israel should investigate “extrajudicial killings” of Palestinian attackers, calls her comments “outrageous, unjust and just wrong.”

The PM, however, refuses to call Wallstrom anti-Semitic, saying he has not explored her motives for making the remarks yesterday.

“It’s an absurdity, and it’s just stupid,” he tells foreign reporters at a gathering in Jerusalem.
