A video released by Netanyahus office showed the Israeli prime minister a friend of Kushners father embracing him and saying: This is an opportunity to pursue our common goals of security, prosperity and peace.
Jared, I welcome you here in that spirit. I know of your efforts, the presidents efforts, and I look forward to working with you to achieve these common goals.
Kushner replied: The president sends his best regards and its an honour to be here with you.
However, journalists were prevented from even filming Kushners arrival at Netanyahus office. The Associated Press said one of its cameramen was prevented from filming the arrival of his convoy while another was ordered to delete his memory card of all images of the prime ministers office.

(16,311 posts)5. because the british are ashamed at what they did in the ME
So they project their shame onto Israelis, who they believe are colonialists like they were. Except they aren't.
The BBC did an internal audit recently about their Israel coverage, it was so bad they buried the report.
