Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu issued a message of support Thursday for Elon Musk after the world’s richest man was accused of making a Nazi salute.

Musk “is being falsely smeared,” Netanyahu wrote on X, the social media platform owned by Musk. “Elon is a great friend of Israel. He visited Israel after the October 7 massacre… [and] has since repeatedly and forcefully supported Israel’s right to defend itself against genocidal terrorists and regimes who seek to annihilate the one and only Jewish state.”

Musk later thanked Netanyahu.

    Trump has to come out and openly say he is building a fascist regime and fly swastikas and call it the fourth Reich.

    Exactly. I’ve seen some mental gymnastics that would make Cirque members writhe in agony. “How can it be genocide if there’s still Palestinians?” or “Israelis are Jewish, they can’t be Nazis” and on and on.
