Former Investigator Likens Likud and Netanyahu to Crime Organization

By יעל פרידסון
Translated & summarized from Haaretz by baba
The story · English

A former senior investigator in the "Cases of the Thousand" investigations has accused the Likud party and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of operating like a crime organization. The investigator, who was not named, drew parallels between their alleged conduct and that of criminal syndicates, suggesting a pattern of behavior focused on self-preservation and manipulation.

The article also touches on unrelated topics, including the IDF chief of staff's directive to examine legal actions against a film called "Naza's Film" and its participants, and the removal of a performer from Ed Sheeran's tour due to pro-Palestinian statements. Additionally, it mentions a request by the Likud party to disqualify the Ra'am party and a similar request against the Otzma Yehudit party. Other segments discuss choosing coffee, a quote about sending children to war, a personal reflection on arriving in Japan, and a description of an atmosphere perceived as antagonistic towards left-wing Tel Aviv residents in their own city. It also notes teenagers from a settlement establishing a residential complex in the Galilee on land belonging to Majd al-Krum, and a brief mention of a historical figure passing through the Land of Israel.
