Seems to have been a pubic hair on your ballots, Joe.

I'm from Israel and I personally know Bibi and even had the pleasure to assist him in the last campaign. I can assure you he is on the right side. He was getting hammered here in Israel for not congratulating Joe Biden while all other world leader have.

Notice that he did not congratulate Biden for winning or for being the next president. He has been working with him professionally in the past and will continue to work with him since he is a pro. Not to mention that if the courts betray us and let Biden become the POTUS, Bibi wouldn't want to suffer a retribution that would probably affect all Israelis. I wouldn't be surprised if he pinged Trump right before that, explained that he must do it, and kept the wording vague (he could be congratulating him just for the "momentum" even if not final.)

We cannot always expect world leaders to jump into the rabbit hole with us.
