The indictment of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that was announced today did not come as a surprise to anyone who has been paying attention. Israeli politics have become less workable and less democratic over time. What we are seeing here is an attempted coup by the Israeli version of the Deep State.
I wrote about Caroline Glicks presentation on the pending charges against Netanyahu at David Horowitzs Restoration Weekend here. Caroline wrote last month at Mosaic Magazine: The Real Threat to Israels Democracy Comes from the Office of Its Attorney General.
The key questionindeed, just about the only questionthat has been endlessly discussed is whether Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit will end Netanyahus political career by indicting him on corruption charges. The importance of this question is self-evident. On the one hand we have a democratically elected leader. On the other hand, we have unelected state prosecutors who wish to oust him from power by indicting him.

Well, thank goodness — “It can’t happen here!” [/s]
Anybody who understands the m*slim threat is targeted by the left.
O.K. But.
The “but” is you have to have read many more articles on this topic, going back in time, to get the information this article gives not a single word to; which is what exactly is the indictment accusing Netanyahu of. The entire article assumes the reader already knows that. Most do not.
I don’t live there and only read the articles as they come, but Israel’s Leftist’s seem even more insane than the one’s in the US. The arabs indiscriminately launch rockets at them from hospitals and schoolyards, knowing the Israeli’s won’t send back counter-battery. They have PLO terrorists climbing out of tunnels to murder and kidnap their countrymen/women.
And pretty much the only person willing to put the Pimp-Hand down on the bad guys is Netanyahu.
Guess it’s no different that what these morons do here, but the bad guys haven’t started launching rockets....yet.

No, do NOT step down, Prime Minister Netanyahu. Ive carefully reviewed these charges and theyre outrageous. This is an assault on freedom of the press and the investigation was corrupt. And your media is ever worse than ours.

Text of charges translated:
I suppose the backstory is that Israel has parliamentary supremacy, meaning the Knesset can shut down this penny ante stuff any time. That they dont indicates Bibis weak support among his own majority.
“Knesset can shut down this penny ante stuff any time. That they dont indicates Bibis weak support among his own majority.”
Or maybe the deep state and Soros puppets are in place (our version of Rino’s) and they know they will finally get their indictment of BiBi .
