Benjamin Netanyahu, starting his five-day trip when he’s meet seven African leaders in four countries says  its emotional for him to stand very near where his brother Yonathan fell in the 1976 Israeli commando raid to extract Jewish and Israeli passengers from an Air France flight held hostage at the Entebbe Airport.
