Israel has Brazilian fascists on its side

From Tony in Brazil: "I came across a story that may interest you. It is a little bit old, but I think it reflects the shabbiness of those that Israel can still count on as allies in much of the world.

Jair Bolsonaro is a federal congressman and presidential candidate. He is racist, misogynistic and homophobic. He supports torture and promotes a military coup. After the recent spat between the two countries, Bolsonaro wrote a letter in support of the Israeli ambassador. I can translate the article and letter if you please."
