(March 19, 2025 / JNS) Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu attacked the “deep state” in his country and in the United States on Wednesday, accusing “leftists” of weaponizing the justice system against democratically elected leaders.

“In America and in Israel, when a strong right wing leader wins an election, the leftist deep state weaponizes the justice system to thwart the people’s will,” Netanyahu stated.

“They won’t win in either place,” he added.
