Israel PM denies son dating Norway 'gentile'

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has reportedly denied that his daughter is in a relationship with a non-Jewish Norwegian girl, after reports of the couple's relationship scandalised his orthodox supporters.

According to Israel's Channel 10, one of Netanyahu's top aides on Wednesday assured Aryeh Deri, whose religious Shas party is seen as the kingmaker in Israeli politics, that Yair Netanyahu and Sandra Leikanger "only study together".

Deri had previously joined a chorus of condemnation that had followed reports that Yair Netanyahu, 23, was in a relationship with Sandra Leikanger, a 25 year old from Grimstad in southern Norway.

"Shame on the people of Israel that the son of the prime minister maintains a relationship with a gentile," he had said in an interview on Israeli radio. "I know friends of mine who invest tens of millions and more, hundreds of millions, to fight assimilation in the world. If, God forbid, it's true, woe be unto us."

Just think if that second paragraph were accurate -- heads would explode, I'm sure.

2. So....is it his son, or is it his daughter? Which one is in a relationship with a Norwegian girl?

And HEAVEN FORBID that the genes, races, blood, religions, WHATEVER, of the world would fall in love with someone who has different genes, blood, religions, private parts, than the ones they are "supposed" to mate with.

Really???? So the Jewish race/faith is supposed to "fight assimilation" ????

This world is so fucked up.

GET REAL.

8. Oh please.

I don't agree with any group trying to "purify" their little circle. That reeks of socio-political elitism, not matter who does it or why. Trying to keep your genes or your religion pure is sickening at its very core.

We are ONE WORLD. We are all connected to one another. The more we try to stay separate, the more we have reason to do the "us vs. them" mentality, and have wars, and a reason to hurt one another, and to put other people down because of their genes or religious beliefs.

7. Stupid post.

12. Why is it stupid?

I don't see whose business it is if these two want to date, but since his dad's press staff feels the need to issue a statement that says they "only study together," I'm pointing out that that doesn't appear to be the case. Maybe I'm too "stupid" to understand my own "stupidity," so perhaps you could clarify it, using less insulting terms if that is possible for you to do.

Like sticking your nose into business so utterly not yours, because Gaw-duh told you to.

Hope Bibi's happy with his political "allies" now.

10. How is it any of this Deri guy's business?

Why do religious extremists always feel they have the right to comment on and control other people's lives?
