WASHINGTON — Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told Breitbart News exclusively he is “gratified to see” new polling from Israel’s Channel 14 that shows him and his party Likud with bolstered support from the Israeli public.
“If it were up to the fake polls that are continually published by the mainstream media in Israel I would never be elected,” Netanyahu told Breitbart News. “As you know, I’m the longest-serving Prime Minister in Israel because these polls are fake, and when it comes to the wire, the real results always shake them up. The only poll that got it right in the last election is predicting now that we’d win again, a great majority, that the Likud is at least twice the size of the next party. I also beat any contender by 20 points. You never see that in the media controlled by the deep state in Israel. But that’s what we see in the one poll that got the results right in previous elections and I’m gratified to see it.”
Netanyahu said he thinks the bump in support he is seeing among the people in Israel is due to two major factors: Success that Israel has had in the war against Hamas, but also the resurgence of President Donald Trump in the United States, which has strengthened the U.S.-Israel alliance again in historic ways. “I think a good part of that jump is due to the successes we’ve had in the war and also the sense that Israel and America are completely aligned right now under President Trump,” Netanyahu said. “That strengthens Israel, that strengthens America, and it strengthens the possibility of peace. One of the things that people have to realize is we could end the war by winning the war, and by winning the war we also win the peace.” (Read More)
