I see the, "it's just sex" folks are hard at work on behalf of Bibi.
If the police say he should be indicted I seriously doubt it's just that he took cigars but since I gather that the AG who Bibi appointed will make the final decision, I feel sure the side pumping the only cigars meme will prevail.
And if head cop Comey said Hillary should not be charged, then I guess that’s that./s
The “police” means the head cop, a politico, not every man and woman in uniform with their caps on their hearts standing at attention.
“If the police say he should be indicted I seriously doubt it’s just that he took cigars”
I take it you have had the time to carefully study all the evidence the police have?
Interesting, I said similar comments. These kinds of “scandals” are always being managed by the many sides. I admit I have not done much digging into the story though and I suspect the charge of corruption is probably stretching. He may have accepted some various gifts but in such a case intent matters, the people involved matter, the value and the appearance of presence of quid pro quo all matter. He’s been PM for a long time now, and was PM before. PM should be entitled to a life, friendship, social life, camaraderie etc. Not excusing or defending anything in particular but if there was something major here I think that would have also been ‘managed’ by his opponents. Yes Bibi’s defenders talk cigars. But if he took a major bribe his detractors would be hitting on it directly “he took X” and the cigar story would get less play. So far they have not made it exactly clear what he took or its worth or why he took it or what he gave in return... which makes me suspect the charge is weak or circumstantial.
