(Worthy News) – Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will seek to shore up right-wing support Wednesday morning, with the start of a high-stakes legal hearing and the possible end of coalition negotiations suspended over his political future like twin swords of Damocles.

A long-awaited pre-indictment hearing with Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit comes as coalition negotiations have foundered, leading to widespread speculation that the longtime Likud leader may end his bid to form a new government early, which may eventually mean an unprecedented third round of elections.

With his 10-man legal team presenting their defense to Mandelblit and other justice officials, Netanyahu is set to meet Wednesday morning with the heads of the Shas, United Torah Judaism and Yamina parties at his office in Jerusalem, according to reports in Hebrew-language media. The parties are expected to discuss the deadlock in coalition talks. [ Source: Times of Israel (Read More…) ]
