Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu issued a message of support Thursday for Elon Musk after the world’s richest man was accused of making a Nazi salute.

Musk “is being falsely smeared,” Netanyahu wrote on X, the social media platform owned by Musk. “Elon is a great friend of Israel. He visited Israel after the October 7 massacre… [and] has since repeatedly and forcefully supported Israel’s right to defend itself against genocidal terrorists and regimes who seek to annihilate the one and only Jewish state.”

Musk later thanked Netanyahu.

    Most nations do not let non-citizens vote so that’s not surprising.

    You seem to be REALLY ignorant about the whole “we don’t like them so we don’t consider them citizens” strategy that might be one of the oldest authoritarian strategies to leverage xenophobia in the play book…

      No, you just seem to have a poor understanding of how governments work. You already are doubling down on your ignorance which is a bad sign.

      I don’t have any interest trying to correct people who want to cling to ignorance so let’s stop here.
