Israeli illusionist Uri Geller has accused former U.S. President of spreading anti-Semitic narratives due to remarks made about the history of Israel and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
Geller emphasized the millennia-long Jewish presence in the region and noted that during later waves of immigration, land was legally purchased from Arab owners, sometimes at significant cost. He cited Ottoman and British period documents as evidence. Geller also shared his own family's story, stating his parents arrived in Palestine in 1932 to escape Nazism, questioning the criticism of Jewish efforts to find refuge.
Geller concluded by characterizing the former U.S. president as a danger to Israel, whose rhetoric promotes historical interpretations that can increase prejudice against Jews. The article also briefly mentions a previous call for Palestinian Arabs to abandon violence for ethical methods, attributed to the former U.S. leader.
