Opinion | Political Motive: Between the Leak and the Commission of Inquiry Israel today

2022-01-16T06:53:43.968Z


The person who took care to bring out the existence of the negotiations also wanted to bring Netanyahu back to consciousness in the "defendant" position.


In intelligence, it is important to identify the source when approaching the evaluation of the information.

In the case of the "buzz" surrounding the plea deal that is allegedly brewing between the prosecution and Benjamin Netanyahu, the primary source is Ben Caspit.

That is, probably a political source, and so is the motive.

The legal system usually uses other writings.

Fact - The effect of the publications is mainly political. It is causing confusion and de-moralization on the right, precisely when Netanyahu and his lawyers have succeeded in establishing a convincing narrative that the 4000 case is empty of content. The mask of witnesses and their testimonies took the air out of the balloon of the main charges. In this respect, no matter the bargaining around the clauses that are published regarding a plea deal, one thing everyone agrees on: the prosecution is getting off the bribery issue. Yes disgrace, no disgrace - the bribery clause, which caused the political demon dance and was the only thing that justified the filing of a serious indictment against an incumbent prime minister, comes down in a plea deal.

Those who took care to bring out the existence of the negotiations also wanted to bring Netanyahu back to consciousness in the "defendant" position.

After all, for many months Ilan Yeshua, Nir Hefetz and now also the police investigator Nir Schwartz are emerging as prosecution witnesses, but the information they provide shatters the prosecution's case, and Netanyahu himself is erased from consciousness as a defendant.

Some of Netanyahu's opponents also admit that they blamed him for ousting him.

The difference between them and the right-wingers is that they think that having no choice is justified in turning the law into a tool of political impeachment.

In terms of what was revealed, the trial should have been stopped already.

It is nationally harmful and detrimental to the justice system.

The struggle against the appointment of Shai Nitzan as rector of the National Library comes from below and reflects popular opposition.

It was not started by Likud activists, but by people within the National Library.

Who even knew who held the positions in this important institution?

The main problem is that every few days the government imposes more serious damage on the state, and it has to be overthrown in some way.

Now it's a matter for the Commission of Inquiry.

The dynamics surrounding the establishment of the submarine investigation committee reflect the dynamics of the pressures that led to the decisions to file the indictments against Netanyahu.

Defense Minister Ganz must provide the goods for a particular security establishment of which he is a part.

The fact that the commission of inquiry may eliminate all the submarine purchases is a marginal matter for him and for the pressure operators.

It is already a question of damage caused by the issue of procurement.

The question is how a plea deal fits into the tough competition between the dissolution of the government and the dissolution of the state.

Were we wrong?

Fixed!
