Netanyahu slams Belgium PM as 'weak' after move to recognize Palestinian state

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called his Belgian counterpart a "weak leader" on Wednesday, a day after Belgium announced it would recognize Palestine as a state.

"Belgian Prime Minister (Bart) de Wever is a weak leader who seeks to appease Islamic terrorism by sacrificing Israel. He wants to feed the terrorist crocodile before it devours Belgium," Netanyahu's office said in a post on its official X account.
