Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is in London Monday for meetings with British Prime Minister Theresa May. Before his departure Sunday evening, Netanyahu told reporters he is “not bothered” by rumors he’s hearing on the “regulation law,” legislation designed to prevent further destruction of Jewish communities in Judea and Samaria such as last week’s forced evacuation of the hilltop community of Amona. The bill, which passed its first reading in the Knesset last
