Re: Those greedy Netanyahus ?

Question:

Wouldn't it just be easier to accept and agree that a few leaders are taken to task for fraud and corruption?
It's not a new thing.
And that Israel is not exempt.
Netanyahu's wife is currently on trial is she not.

She was also embroiled, a few years back, in an out of court settlement with an employee, a maid, for abuse... followed by a ex-caretaker who was suing her for racist and physical abuse though I've no idea how that one panned out in the end.

Re: Those greedy Netanyahus ?

yes but it the " I am holier than thou" attitude that grates - and in Israel that can count for a seat at the tabernacle!!

Re: Those greedy Netanyahus ?

Well here's a first.

I was just reading news headlines about Sara Netanyahu's trial and one came up ...

Netanyahu is expected to call early elections in Israel: Cleveland Jewish News.

When I clicked on the link it said ..
Unavailable due to legal reasons.
Because I was trying to access the site from the European Economic Area, including the EU, which enforces the General Data Protection.

Israel is not holier than thou but it does have high ethical standards .
It's does prosecute its own people for offences .
That's is why it's a democracy unlike its neighbours and that is why many ' Palestinians ' prefer to live under the governance of Israel rather than their own corrupt leaders.

oh dear oh dear oh dear - have we got stuff coming up soon - "high ethical standards ? bunkcum" "prosecutes and lets off lightly?" " a democracy" ? - not by international standards - and at the moment running scared and in fear of a young american female student and unprepared to take the words of the Hebrew University - democracy my arse! - it would recognize democracy if it bit it in it's own arse!
