Bibi’s tiny payback for Trump’s F-35 diktat

Haaretz Podcast - A podcast by Haaretz

Host Simon Spungin is joined by Chemi Shalev and Amir Tibon to discuss the Israeli and Jewish angles ahead of the U.S. presidential election. Are Israelis right to see Donald Trump as the best friend they’ve ever had in the White House – even if the president’s motives are unclear? Could an ousted Trump use the transition period to push through a series of far-reaching policy decisions vis-à-vis the Middle East? And was Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s refusal to play along with Trump’s denigration of Democratic candidate Joe Biden the result of the Israeli leader’s displeasure at being forced to sign off on the U.S. sale of F-35 stealth bombers to the United Arab Emirates?
