Netanyahu Praises Israeli Democracy at Fourth of July Celebration
by News Editor
The Jerusalem Post – Israel is an island of democracy in a sea of instability and despotism, and this has never been truer than now, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu said on Thursday night at the annual Fourth of July bash at the US ambassador’s home in Herzliya.
Without addressing the situation in Egypt directly, the prime minister said that “those who seek liberty are our natural allies.” Netanyahu said that he hopes there will be a time when true democracy will flourish in the region, but this is something that will take time.
