Netanyahu: Charles Krauthammer Was "among the Greatest Supporters of Israel"
(Prime Minister's Office) Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told the Israeli Cabinet on Sunday: "Charles Krauthammer was among the greatest commentators and writers, and among the greatest supporters that State of Israel has ever had....He defended Israel in a way that I find difficult to describe - methodically, with great creativity and with very great daring....He simply wrote the truth, the deepest truth....He had a great sharpness, a completeness that was without peer and deep Jewish sources that he was always very proud of and which he drew on." "I read the letter that he published two weeks before his death [and] I sent him one. His son, Daniel, read my letter to him and he managed to listen to it and respond before he lost consciousness. He had two words: 'Goodbye brother.' Remember Charles Krauthammer. I will never forget him. The State of Israel and the Jewish people owe him extraordinary gratitude."
