Netanyahu Cancels Meeting with German Foreign Minister
(Jerusalem Post) Herb Keinon - Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu canceled a meeting with visiting German Foreign Minister Sigmar Gabriel on Tuesday because he insisted on meeting with "organizations that defame IDF soldiers and try to prosecute our soldiers as war criminals." Deputy Minister for Diplomacy Michael Oren asked how Germany would react if foreign leaders went there and met with German organizations that portray German soldiers in Afghanistan as war criminals. "We had a situation here that was anomalous, and not in accord with normal behavior between states, certainly not between allied democratic states," he added.
