Israel Police will recommend indicting Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for bribery and breach of trust in two cases Tuesday night, Israel's Channel 2 and Channel 10 reported.
After a 14-month-long investigation, police are expected to announce on Tuesday that it found enough evidence to recommend the state’s prosecution to indict Netanyahu for bribery and breach of trust in Case 1000, the “gifts affair" and Case 2000, the "Yediot Aharanot Affair."
In Case 1000, the “gifts affair,” it is alleged that Netanyahu improperly accepted expensive gifts from different businessmen.
In Case 2000, the “Yediot Aharonot affair,” Netanyahu allegedly negotiated with publisher Arnon “Noni” Mozes for favorable coverage of himself in Yediot Aharonot in exchange for support of a bill to weaken Israel Hayom, the largest circulation Hebrew-language paper and Yediot’s biggest competitor.
At this stage, the prosecution and Attorney-General Avichai Mandelblit will examine the evidence that police collected throughout the investigations, and will later decide whether to actually indict the prime minister or not.
Netanyahu will not be required at this point to resign from office. The law says that only after a peremptory Supreme Court verdict (meaning after an appeal was submitted and rejected), the prime minister must resign from office.

Gideon Saar or Naftali Bennett are the most likely replacements for Netanyahu.
This is an utter outrage and such total bull sh!t.
Prime Minister Netanyahu has corrupt Leftists after him just like President Trump.
Yes, indeed, serious and continued prayers for this honest, decent, brave man.
He wouldn’t cheat anyone.
But anyone who knows me knows I'm a die-hard Bibi fanatic.
Indeed, this is the Tel Aviv left attacking.
Bull. The Commies have big bullhorns to blare at a small following. Talk of their momentum is nonsense. Don’t be deceived
DITTO!!!........DITTO.......
God bless and protect Bibi
Amen.
Not sure on this, BUT.
The Israeli left wing has done their best to get the hell rid of Bibi any way they can.
Have NO idea WHY, them Jews want to get rid of the guy who wants to protect Israel from the scum that surrounds them.
Come on Bibi, NUKE iran, and not just a single bomb, nuke em a whole lot.
When “Q” implied shite would go down this week I assumed he meant for the other side. It is now Wed. and just more of the same, but now a new “scandal” about another abuser (albeit this time physical rather than sexual that’s new) and Bibi of all people being charged with stuff. ?
Amazing how the Left/Opposition uses the government that they created to destroy its enemies. And when they need more help, they just enact more laws or grant themselves more power.
..................
I agree and the charges remind me of a certain Clinton Foundation which seems to be perfectly legal here in a 9th circus ruled banana republic.
Everyone remotely to the right of the globalist consensus cabal is a target — even the centrist Ontario “conservative” leader who was disliked by many on the right for being too liberal, was recently brought down by apparently fake charges of sexual impropriety (the woman said she was forced into sex and under-aged, and now it turns out perhaps neither of the above).
And this, big surprise, was right before an election where the globalist Liberal government (of Ontario, not Canada) with an openly lesbian leader was in trouble in the public opinion polls.
So it’s open season on anyone who stands in the way of fast-track globalism, even wimpy guys who just aren’t on the A list.
“It’s often difficult to know who is a good guy and who is not.”
Knowing who is the good guy and who is the bad guy is not difficult, it is impossible, since the left controls the media and has weaponized it to advance their political agenda and to destroy the opposition.
This means no story can be believed - in fact, one should assume it’s a lie.
If it is possible to glean anything from a story like this, is would be the following:
This story puts Netanyahu in a negative light, therefore he is one of the good guys.
Excellent point.
I do think - though not in this case - that sometimes there is reverse psychology going on, where they are counting on those of us who are paying attention to draw that conclusion.
Facts and truth are our friends. We need to shine the light and uncover the truth.
We also need to remember that NO ONE is perfect. Even our heroes will have made mistakes. I am in no way a fan of “the ends justify the means”. I will judge a person based on goals AND means. It’s important to be able to distinguish between a momentary lapse, and honest mistake, and a consistent pattern of evil.
Thanks for you response. Great points.
Sounds like the American democrat party is meddling in Israel’s politics,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,again.
