Netanyahu releases comment on former president George H.W. Bush's passing

Israel will always remember former president George H.W. Bush for his “commitment to Israel's security, his important contribution to the liberation of Soviet Jewry, and his efforts to achieve peace in the Middle East at the Madrid Conference,” Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Saturday night.
Netanyahu, in a statement in which he sent “heartfelt condolences to the Bush family and the American people on the passing of a great American patriot,” said that Bush's “leadership at the end of the Cold War helped steer the world to a peaceful transition and the spread of democracy.”
