Netanyahu trial opens two weeks after Israel’s election

The date for Binyamin Netanyahu’s trial for bribery, breach of faith and fraud has been set for March 17, 15 days after Israel’s general election, which his Likud party is fighting against the challenge of Kahol Lavon. The three judges appointed by the court are Justice Rivkah Friedman-Feldman, who leads the panel, Moshe Bar-Am and Oded Shaham.

Netanyahu has charged that he is innocent of wrongdoing and the three separate charges against him were cooked up by a hostile, politically biased legal system. In the most serious, Case 4000, he is accused of granting regulatory benefits to the telecom magnate Shaul Elovitch to buy favorable coverage in the Wallah news site. After the opening session on March 17, the proceedings are likely to be set for a later date to give Netanyahu’s counsel time to study the material

    Bibi is a putze and a little shmuck that should have been put on trial a long time ago. Why are they waiting, he should have been put on trial before not after the election.

    Israel is going to be much better when we are free of this putze criminal and his lunatic wife.

    Israeli relations with the diaspora is at its worst ever, Israel has become a target in the American elections and this putze has just given our enemies the details of ever voter.

    Its time for Miss Piggy and her fellow swine to go back to selling furniture.

    I agree with Larry and Ronny, Bibi has let us all down by weakening and creating divisions within Israel and a ominous step change in the Jewish support for Israel.

    Lets not fool ourselves, Israel survives because of the diaspora. If they turn their backs on Israel our years are numbered.

    The corruption charges even if proven i can over look. But arrogance, stupidity, weakness and greed all rolled up together is an efficiency that can end up destroying everything.
