How does Gantz’s hacked cellphone tie in with Israel’s non-strike on Iran’s nuclear sites in 2012?
The new Blue-White party fighting to win Israel’s coming election is led, or supported, by individuals who in 2012 forced PM Binyamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Ehud Barak to cancel their planned pre-emptive attack on Iran’s evolving nuclear weapons program. Three years later, those same individuals enthusiastically supported the nuclear accord signed by six world powers led by the Obama administration.
Among them were former chiefs of staff Benny Gantz and Gaby Ashkenazi. Their fellow party leader, Yair Lapid, vocally fought Netanyahu’s drive to prevent the nuclear deal from going through. Lapid maintained that the prime minister’s dramatic appeal to the US Congress, at that time, would derail the strategic relations between the US and Israel.
The “submarine affair” today is led by the same actors. It has two parts, criminal and strategic. In the first, the prime minister was exhaustively investigated on suspicion of bribery and absolved of any financial gain or other connection with the transaction. Indictments were filed against a long line of officials and a military commander. The attorney general moreover confirmed that Netanyahu had full authority to make the decision to purchase the additional submarines from Germany.
Regarding the strategic aspect of the submarine controversy, the same individuals who countered the military option against Iran objected nine years ago to Israeli purchasing a sixth submarine from the German ThyssenKrupp shipyard, because it would have tipped the scales in favor of a military attack on Iran by arming Israel with a “second strike” capability against a potential Iranian attack.
This time, Netanyahu was not cowed by the generals. He bought the sixth submarine against their advice – for which they will never forgive him.
Today, many experts agree that not just six, but 8 or 10, of those submarines, would enhance Israel’s strategic position in the region.
Egypt’s purchase of the German submarines was also dragged into the current election campaign. Netanyahu stands accused of giving the transaction a pass, contrary to Israel’s security interests, in order to fill the pockets of members of his family and his own profit.
DEBKAfile’s military and intelligence sources lift the Egyptian sub transaction out of the election campaign and sets the record straight. If Netanyahu had hypothetically advised Berlin to refuse the sale, Cairo would have turned to Russia, China or South Korea instead, in which case Israel would have had no say in the sale or knowledge of the systems installed on the submarines. The Germans were willing to listen to, and share information with, Israel. Therefore, Netanyahu acted purely in the interests of national security by approving the German sub transaction with Egypt.
Nonetheless, former defense minister Moshe Ya’alon, a member of the Blue-White party’s leading quartet, went so far on Wednesday, March 20, as to accuse Netanyahu of treasonable conduct!
At this low point in the party’s fight against him, Netanyahu made his voice heard. Speaking to reporters from his Jerusalem residence, he was flanked by Avi Dichter, chairman of the Knesset Foreign Affairs and Security Committee and former head of the Shin Bet security service. The prime minister did not try to defend himself against the accusations, which he treats as outrageously unfounded; instead he turned his gun back on Blue-White leader Benny Gantz’s hacked smartphone. He charged his rival with continuing to run for election as a future prime minister, while exposing Israel to danger, since Iran is only waiting for the chance to use the content pulled from his cellphone for extortion. He can only save himself, said the prime minister, by coming clean to the public on the phone’s content and so neutralizing the Iranian threat.
“Benny Gantz, what are you hiding from the Israeli public?” the prime minister asked. “What do the Iranians know about you that you are hiding from us? This is not a matter of gossip but national security. So come clean!”
Dichter said: “The enemy’s breach of the cellphone of a person with pretensions to become prime minister has disastrous connotations.”
It was clear from their remarks that both know exactly what Gantz’s smartphone contains and let him know that, if he did not lay its content bare, someone else would do it for him. Although Iran denied hacking the phone in Wednesday, its leaders must be chuckling quietly over having seized center stage of the Zionist state’s election campaign.
A general submerged in shyt is pushed further down with a force equal with the weight of the displaced shyt.
Bibi try to win the election but he is forget about the iranian nuclear deal which was happened under his nose and gaza rocket and ballon attacks which remains unanswered after several years. This id not the way pne should rule a country
what would you have done better? those things you mention are beyond anybody’s control. Obviously you feel the need to make a stupid comment.
Former “top soldier” Gantz has become a pitiful, if not ridiculous persona – definitely not a political leader
for a Jewish state, at this most challenging of times…
… former Benny Gantz …. right now more of a bunny Gantz ….. and carrying a pink smartphone
These Israeli smartphone hackings involving so-smart-they-outsmart-themselves politicians resonate with Hilary’s escapades with smashed Blackberries, thousands of “lost” e-mails and just plain incompetent behavior regarding Iran at so many levels. Iran & North Korea are heading for a reckoning and America will share the pain because the “Iran Nuclear Deal” meddling was an oblique block of Israeli freedom of action.
A “False Flag” EMP/HAMP event over North America is likely fruit of Obama/Kerry ill thought out Iranian bribe. Authoritative template for how things play out can be read in William Forstchen’s book “ONE SECOND AFTER”. The Obama/Clinton era can be likened to the Ahab/Jezebel 26 years in the book of Kings, for a parallel. Jehu was an ungodly wild card breaking up the Ahab/Jezebel cancer; does Trump prove to be God’s (unGodly) man in our era?
False flag or no. US food distribution, critical to US position as partner with Israel, is in question with current near 100% reliance on solid state controls for trucking. Are any strategic savvy private financial sources able to fathom need for expedited rebuild of US food production district rail branch lines?
@tahoevalleylines…POTUS Trump was in the spirit of Jehu, when he beat hrc, but he is more of a Moses figure. I believe him soon to be the anointed leader of Daniel 9:25. After the 69th week, is the anointed ruler. The 70th week just began, so the anointed ruler should be in the anointing SOON.
Why do you say POTUS Trump is ungodly, when he has done more for Christians, Jews, Justice, and the people than any other modern POTUS.
The Patriots are in control of America, I do not see them allowing any major ff. The only ff’s that the ds will be able to get away with is the one like nz.
Sounds like this was written by Netanyahu himself…
trump is an idiot and a pawn of Putin. He’s bankrupted the US farmers and now he’s going to close Detroit. Break up NATO and loose trust of all the US allies… directly from Putin’s mouth. Putin also owns the GOP Congress via payoffs thru the NRA.
Trump is no pawn of Putin. The Anglo-American Deep State makes this accusation because Trump is breaking its control over U.S. foreign policy. Its a convincing accusation for low-IQ CNN viewers, but there is no truth to it. Trump is making America sovereign again. The U.S. military will no longer act as the security contractor for the British-UN empire.
Anglo-American Deep State is also responsible for the anti-semitic myth that Israel control’s U.S. foreign policy. To deflect from their own insidious crimes. Its an age-old trick of the anti-semitic forces that dominate behind the scenes. Enlist Jewish figures to put in public view, then blame “the Jews” when the public grows suspicious of the government.
And when did Trump remove sanctions on Russia, they can barely cash a check there.
You have TDS, get some help
Congress reimposed the sanctions after Trump wanted to remove or lessen them. Trump changed the GOP platform against Russia before the convention. trump wants to build his tower in Mockba. Remove your head from trump’s rectum and follow the money/truth.
amazingly stupid comment. you accuse Trump and the GOP while the Dimms are the ones you should be looking at. obviously ure one of the Dimms, stupid liars.
