Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu pledged on Monday (1 April) to shutter the local office of Qatari satellite television network Al Jazeera while the war in Gaza continues.
Hours after his party spokesperson said parliament would be convened to ratify the necessary law, the Knesset approved the bill allowing the temporary closure in Israel of foreign broadcasters considered to be a threat to national security.
Al Jazeera, which is funded by the Qatari government, called the Israeli measure an “escalation” and said it “comes as part of a series of systematic Israeli attacks to silence Al Jazeera,” according to a statement late on Monday.
I remember him being in power in the late 90s when I was in middle school, Putin too.
I think it’s safe to say that when he’s only rotating out due to term limits then going right back to office when he’s eligible means we’re already there. He was Prime Minister in 1996, that would be like Bill Clinton being president today.
Interesting thing I noticed, Clinton is four years younger than Biden.
