Exclusive: Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu Getting a Super Secret Documentary In Progress Now

Share

Guess who’s coming to dinner?

Benjamin Netanyahu, the highly controversial Israeli prime minister, is in Washington this week. He’s addressing Congress, and then having meetings with President Biden, next president Harris, and 34 time convicted felon and rapist Donald Trump.

But I can tell you exclusively something Netanyahu doesn’t know: a film company is making a documentary about him. It’s super secret. I know who’s doing it — it’s not Michael Moore — but it’s a very respected filmmaker. I won’t reveal who it is yet because I don’t want them to get sidelined.

Netanyahu has managed to make Israel unsympathetic since October 7th. He’s turned a lot of people against a country that is the victim of an unprovoked attack. The premise is that he’s doing this to remain in power. Once ousted, he would likely go to jail.

So this week in the US should give the filmmakers a lot of material. Maybe we’ll see it before long. I hope so.
