Netanyahu calls decision to indict him an ‘attempted coup’
(Worthy News) – Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Thursday called a criminal indictment against him an attempt at a “government coup” and he will continue to “lead Israel.” It is the first time in the country’s history a sitting prime minister has been charged with a crime.
Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit on Thursday formally charged Netanyahu in a series of corruption cases, throwing the country’s paralyzed political system into further disarray and threatening the long-time leader’s grip on power. Mandelblit charged Netanyahu with fraud, breach of trust and accepting bribes in three different scandals.
In a televised speech shortly after the indictment was announced, Netanyahu, 70, claimed that the investigation against him was tainted by bias, saying the police investigators “weren’t after the truth, they were after me.” [ Source: Ynet News (Read More…) ]
