    Beto O'Rourke: Netanyahu is 'racist,' doesn't represent 'true will of the Israeli people'

    (CNN)Former Texas Democratic Rep. Beto O'Rourke offered sweeping criticism of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Sunday, outright calling him "racist" and an obstacle to peace.
    Speaking in Iowa as he campaigns for the Democratic nomination for president, O'Rourke said the US-Israeli relationship was among the most important "on the planet" and singled out Netanyahu.
    "That relationship, if it is to be successful, must transcend partisanship in the United States, and it must be able to transcend a prime minister who is racist, as he warns about Arabs coming to the polls, who wants to defy any prospect for peace as he threatens to annex the West Bank, and who has sided with a far-right, racist party in order to maintain his hold on power," O'Rourke said.

    Wow. The irony in that floors me.

      Obviously because the Israeli people don't represent the "true will of the Israeli people"

            Beto is an idiot.
            The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

              It's OK for the arabs to hate the jews, but if an Israeli even mentions the word "Arab" it is racism?
