I only have these internet posts saying Netan went to Greece, so if wrong I will delete.
I have read 2 articles about Israel bombing Iran but nothing said about whereabouts of Netanyahu.

Riding Rage Over Israel to Online Prominence
Jackson Hinkle’s incendiary commentary has generated over two million new followers on X since October — a surge that some researchers say is aided by inauthentic accounts.

Jackson Hinkle has cultivated an online persona so incendiary that he has been kicked off YouTube, Twitch and Instagram.

He rages on undaunted, even energized. He produces a regular podcast on Rumble, a website popular with many prominent conservatives. He writes dozens of posts a day on X, where his following has surged to 2.5 million from 417,000 in the six months since Oct. 7 — the day Hamas fighters mounted their assault on Israel.

Along the way, he has employed false or misleading content, promoted manipulated images and made comments that watchdog organizations have denounced as antisemitic. He calls himself an American patriot even as he praises American adversaries, including Vladimir V. Putin, Xi Jinping and Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

12. Jackson Hinkle has no place on this site. He, imo, is a true anti-semite and a supporter of the Russian Invasion of UKR

I have strong disagreements with Israel's behavior in Gaza -- and elsewhere -- but he is no ally. He, imo, is a hate figure.

But not by any major news organizations. They'd surely be on it if it were true.
