He did not say Israel is only for Jews.
This is true.

There's nothing wrong with the "it's Bibi or Tibi" slogan and Netanyahu is essentially right: while every citizen is equal, there can be no other national aspirations within the State of Israel than Jewish national aspirations.

However, Netanyahu deliberately put his statement in the most unfortunate way possible, engineering a left-wing frenzy with the aim to attract right-wing voters. And doing all this while disregarding Israel's international reputation. Really starting to think it may be time for him to go. Also afraid we'll see more such stunts before April 9th. That said, I'll still take him over his haters, here and elsewhere.
