President Milei’s surprising devotion to Judaism and Israel provokes tension in Argentina and beyond

[Wally]

I like a lot of what President Milei is doing but I disagree with his commitments to Zelensky in Ukraine and also his devotion to Israel. I have a lot of Jewish friends so that's not the issue but I just don't think this is a good time with tensions there to get Argentina too involved. Just read this article that expressed the same thing.

I completely agree with you Wally. It is a big mistake.

But Milei is a bit strange comparing himself to Moses liberating Egypt! Some people think he is sick.

Milei defendió sus giras por el mundo: "Si lo criticaban a Moisés ¿cómo no me van a criticar a mí?"

Recién llegado de su gira por EEUU y El Salvador, anunció que en dos semanas se irá de nuevo a Europa.

Agreed it is a mistake. It seems like he is just trying to align himself with the United States on these issues. Makes NO sense to even be talking to Zelensky or pledging any support. Same with Israel. Argentina doesn't need more problems. I see Milei is off again to leave out of the country. This is also a mistake spending so much time outside of Argentina.

@Avocado that is funny about him thinking he is Moses! He is either sick on on drugs or both.

That quote is wild comparing himself to Moses. Some of this stuff is going to his head. Hearing about talking to his dogs and comparing to Moses make me think there are some issues there.

I think he just is a media whore. He loves attention and Press and headlines. Same thing with the Ukraine. Argentina won't provide any financial or military support but he knows it will make the Press.

Why the hell does Milei spend time and money going to Israel when we have our own problems to deal with?

This is just a guess, but the Israeli lobby in the US is extraordinarily influential

That is probably it but he has to be careful because he is taking so many trips. We have a lot of problems in Argentina. These trips seem like a distraction.

This guy is a fake. Even the Jews in Argentina know it. Milei is phonier than a 3k peso bill.

Yes he is all fake. It is all about the money for him. Whether it is kissing up to Trump, his fake conversion or scamming billions out of crypto scam. It's all a show.

I am glad that Milei has the good sense to postpone his trip to Israel. Maybe he is wising up. Focus on the economy and only the economy. No one else cares about Israel.

Javier Milei delays Israel visit due to domestic issues, new date unclear

Milei's support for Israel has not wavered, and will travel to Israel as at least one Argentine citizen, Eitan Horn, remains in captivity.
