White House ordered Netanyahu to retract annexation comments — reports
Israeli news broadcasts report that the Israeli statements denying Netanyahu’s assertion earlier today that he is discussing annexation initiatives with the US were the result of direct pressure from the White House.
Both Hadashot and Channel 10 news report that Trump administration officials fumed when they heard Netanyahu’s comments and contacted his office to demand an official retraction.
