Proper Disclosure: On the day I was released from the IDF, I joined the Freedom Movement and later on the Likud. I believed in the vision of the integration of Jewish heritage, Zionism, the integrity of the country and liberalism. The labeling that was pasted to my friends and I was: The Second Israel, Herd, Chachchech, Babylon, Mezuzah and Tomb Raiders The enlightened in themselves, who took a monopoly on tame consciousness, argued with us, with a patronizing falsehood, that we are not civilians because we did not read Chekhov or Dostoevsky, nor heard Wagner and Strauss concerts, because our beliefs and opinions are in contempt, because we have not internalized the gospel. New to Israel according to Amos Oz and David Grossman. 

These days, purely and self-righteous judges have also joined the Supreme Court, blaming Netanyahu's right-wing voters for a moral and moral failure. There is no superiority to the moral values ​​of judges over any other citizen. Even minimal credit for our ability to distinguish between good and bad, they refuse to grant us. It is worthwhile for those judges to take their eyes off them and deal with their own conflicts of interest, with their unwillingness to repay money they have been wrongly paid, as well as with nepotism and promotion. Moral values ​​are not their specialty.

The old elite will never forgive Netanyahu, who has been prime minister for a long time than Ben-Gurion. He, like his predecessors on the right, took from them the state that was named after the taboo, dismantled their negligible political power and managed to make Israel a superpower. In the absence of the ability to exchange power at the ballot box, the legal alternative was chosen. Millions of citizens are convinced that the police and the prosecutor's office, whose motives are important to find out urgently, have created a precedent, conducted a contaminated and leaked investigation and have been indicted. Voting for the majority of the citizens time and time again is a definite proof of their sense of persecution. At the Prime Minister's Residence for affidavits they gave, I was a teenager and also an elder in the legal world, and I don't remember investigations against prosecutors or witnesses on suspicion of false testimony, certainly not in civil cases.

Now Netanyahu is facing an indictment that proves he needs more than 300 prosecution witnesses, to which many defense witnesses must be added. Tens and perhaps hundreds of millions of shekels and thousands of hours of work by investigators and lawyers have been invested in preparing the indictment. The costs of managing the defense in such a trial are enormous. It is doubtful that there is a tycoon in Israel that can meet such huge sums, certainly not the PM whose salary is much lower than a judge in the Supreme Court. In order to hurt the prime minister's chances of refuting the indictment, he is prevented by the permit committee from obtaining funding for his defense. public. it should be hard to justify that MKs can raise funds for the purpose of legal protection, compared to the prime minister and ministers which the Commission is required permits.

what allowed the MKs, prohibited the Prime Minister?

The justification for spending huge amounts of money for investigations is intended to protect the public good due to alleged harm to protected values ​​which have broad social consensus. This is also the explanation for the lack of symmetry between the prosecution and the defendants. In the prime minister's case, however, the supreme public interest that must be protected is the will and choice of citizens. A majority of citizens are convinced that the attempt to criminalize Netanyahu is being manipulated in order to carry out a government coup. Therefore, it is appropriate to allow the prime minister to receive assistance in financing his defense. 

Anyone who is behind the funding will be published, and there is no fear of conflict anyway. The indictment does not claim that the prime minister got rich from his office or pocketed money, as in the case of another prime minister sitting in prison. His actions, unless proven otherwise, were within his public mission. The attempt to prevent Netanyahu from presenting a proper defense attorney was seen by many as part of the original impeachment plan. Then came the prosecutor's office and the police, rolling their eyes and accusing non-camp politicians of losing public confidence in the law enforcement system.
