Yoaz Handel snatches right and left

The new stocking? A harsh criticism of Knesset Member Yoaz Handel (blue and white), after his statement in Haaretz yesterday (Friday), said that the residents of the Eastern testimony "came with a drugstore mentality", compared to Ashkenazi who came with a "concert mentality". The Likud attacked Handel, claiming that the Knesset was a "stocking up of 2020," adding "he refers to Likud voters as a 'derbuk mentality'. This is his attitude toward people returning home, to Israel, with a rich and luxurious culture. Shame!"

But the attacks came not only from the right, but also from the left, and even from his party. Knesset Member Ofer sent a valid statement: "Yoaz Handel's remarks are a miserable statement, which would have been nice if it had not been said and does not reflect the spirit of blue and white." Handel himself claimed after the interview that his words were misunderstood.

"Will the rich be able to spend their money in hell?"

You can't escape death," he said during the killing spree while broadcasting the massacre on Facebook.

The corona virus bypassed the death toll from the SARS epidemic

Corona virus continues to charge victims: China's authorities reported this morning that only 81 people died in the last day, and according to a recent quota, the number of people killed in the epidemic has exceeded 720 people. In doing so, the SARS virus bypassed the death toll in the SARS epidemic that broke out 17 years ago. According to the World Health Organization, about 35,000 people have contracted the disease so far, 18% of them in serious or human condition.

Last night, US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo announced that the United States would donate about $ 100 million to help China and other Corona-affected countries through funds, nonprofits and aid organizations. Pompeo said, "This commitment - along with the hundreds of millions generously donated by the US private sector - demonstrates strong American leadership in response to the virus outbreak."

Trump is thoughtful with the witnesses against him

"Out": US President Donald Trump last week ousted Colonel Alexander Windman, an official of the White House National Security Council, and Gordon Sundland, the US ambassador to the European Union, after the two testified against him in the impeachment proceeding against him in Congress, and his acquittal in the Senate. According to some media reports, Windman was expelled from the White House with escorts.

Trump attacked the media reports, referring to Windman's rank, saying that CNN and NBC TV networks, considered critical of the president, "talk about 'Colonel' Windman as if I should think only of how wonderful he was. But I never talked or met him, And he was very disobedient, reported the details of the conversation with Ukraine inaccurately, and submitted a shocking report about it to his commander - who himself said he had a problem with discretion, and leaked. " Trump summed up his tweet: "Out." U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi commented on the move: "A cheeky retaliation show that Trump is afraid of the truth."
