The latest from Israel on matters swirling around PM Netanyahu and his wife.

His enemies have momentum but what will his response be?

Plenty of speculation at this point.

Scandalous allegations have been a way of life in Israel for politicians of all stripes for many decades.

I'm pro-Israel but people are human and they make mistakes. What this leads to remains to be seen.

LOL. If pressing your news organization for positive coverage of a politician was a crime, every news organization owner in America would be in jail after the Obama era and Clinton campaign.

American networks do it all the time. The whole LameStreamMedia execs line up like chorus girls to insure their networks did the CanCan for Obama. Hell, they even had weekly meetings with Obama admin, to discuss how best they could sell Obama’s agenda. Apparently it wasn’t a crime. So what gives in Israel? Their deep state is as leftist as ours; that’s what.

Haaretz is the left wing Israeli rag that wants Israel wiped out more than the muslims do.

“According to the daily Yedioth Ahronoth Thursday, the CEO of the Walla news site has given the police recordings in which Elovitch, the controlling shareholder of Walla’s parent company Bezeq, is pressuring the CEO to tilt the site’s coverage in favor of Netanyahu and his family.”

SO WHAT.

There is no crime there.

It will be interesting to see if our news media can report this with a straight face.

Yahoo, Facebook, Google, MSN.com don’t tilt their coverage?

Go on, tell another one!

Which is irrelevent, because Netanyahu refused their offer and opposed their law. But instead of going after the corrupt leftist papers, the Leftist traitors running the deep state in Israel are going after Netanyahu.
