The political system is in turmoil and social networks are on fire after earlier today (Tuesday) the recordings of Public Prosecutor Mandelblit first exposed former State Attorney Shai Nitzan, who allegedly refrained from making a decision in his case in the Harpaz case: "This maniac does not decide my case."
Knesset Speaker MK Yariv Levin commented in a scathing Facebook post on the evening's publication, writing: "Tonight's publication is shocking. A situation in which the Attorney General himself testifies that the State Attorney holds him by the throat is unprecedented in its severity. Lawyers are also human. "In the throat of his commissioner, the meaning is simple - the decision-making process is fundamentally flawed, and the independence of the judiciary is severely damaged. When all this takes place while conducting improper investigative proceedings against an elected prime minister, the damage to the Israeli democratic decision is fatal."
The publication in the 12th edition tonight is shocking.
A situation in which the Attorney General himself testifies that the State Attorney is holding him by the throat is unprecedented ...

The Speaker of the Knesset added that "the justice system is once again emerging as a system in which the fundamental failures are deep.
A system that instead of cleaning its ranks, its seniors are busy hiding and covering one another.
There is no escape from conducting a comprehensive and independent examination of the system's ills and the conduct of the prime minister's investigations.
It is essential for the cleanliness of the system, essential for the public's trust in it, and essential to ensure that the democratic decision is not thwarted in improper ways. "
MK Shlomo Qarai from the Likud attacked the ombudsman on Twitter and begged him to resign today.
"Mandelblit must resign tonight and be questioned immediately. As we said all the time, Shai Nitzan squeezed Mandelblit -" grabbed him by the throat ", as he put it."
Mandelblit must resign tonight and be questioned immediately.
As we said all along, Shai Nitzan squeezed Mandelblit - "grabbed him by the throat", as he put it.
The answer I received from the police also stated that the prosecution did not close the case.
It is clear that there is a blackmail-blackmail relationship here, even if under the guise of independence being suppressed and a show of accepting only some of the charges.

The liaison minister between the Knesset and the administration, Dudi Amsalem, also attacked the spokesman and posted on Twitter: "Mandelblit, you left us speechless."

MK Bezalel Motrich, who recently submitted a proposal to set up a parliamentary inquiry committee into the ombudsman's investigation into the matter, commented on the publication and said: "Tonight we got the answer."
Since Mandelblit was appointed to his position I have been asking myself why he is letting Dina Zilber run wild even though he knows she is wrong and legally misleading in every area.
Tonight we got the answer.
Go!
