AFP, WASHINGTONIsraeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Sunday appeared to criticize US Senator Bernie Sanders, whose boycott of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) has laid bare divisions among Democrats. “We don’t want Sanders at AIPAC. The map of Israel will change, the future of Israel will change, and it will change for the better,” Netanyahu said. Ex-military chief Benny Gantz, Netanyahu’s rival in the election, did not mention Sanders in his own remarks by satellite to AIPAC, but vowed to rebuild support for Israel in the US. That is the Israel we know; that is the Israel we need,” Gantz said.
