Netanyahu under Fire over Son's Non-Jewish Norwegian Girlfriend
[An Nahar] Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was under fire Sunday from religious politicians following a report that his son was dating a non-Jewish woman, media said.If you're male and you've ever been to Norway you know what happened to the lad. I believe it's called "hubba hubba syndrome." Norwegian newspaper Dagen reported that Yair Netanyahu, 23, was dating 25-year-old Norwegian Sandra Leikanger, currently studying in Israel. Dagen said that at a meeting in Davos, Netanyahu had told his Norwegian counterpart Erna Solberg the two had recently holidayed in Norway. Nissim Zeev, a member of the ultra-Orthodox Shas party, told the Jerusalem Post on Sunday Netanyahu must "display national responsibility" as prime minister. "It's a big problem," he said. "I bet it pains him." MP Moshe Feiglin, a hardline member of Netanyahu's ruling Likud party, told the Jerusalem Post the relationship "is very unfortunate." The paper cited a source close to Netanyahu's son as confirming that Leikanger is not Jewish. The bad boy Israeli organization Lehava, which says it aims "to prevent assimilation in the Holy Land," called on Netanyahu "to prevent this relationship." Posted by: Fred 2014-01-27 |
