Ex-Shin Bet Chief Ronen Bar Threatens Defamation Suit Against Netanyahu
Former Shin Bet Director Ronen Bar intends to file a defamation lawsuit against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, according to Bar's claims. Bar is demanding the disclosure of documents, testimonies, and Netanyahu's meeting logs with security and foreign officials concerning information received before October 7th. He also plans to summon members of the Prime Minister's staff and aides to testify.
It is emphasized that these are solely Bar's allegations and not proven facts. Bar alleges that Netanyahu is conducting a incitement campaign against him, releasing partial documents out of context. Bar claims this is happening after Netanyahu refused for three years to admit responsibility and prevented the establishment of a state inquiry commission.
Bar further contends that Netanyahu is attempting to deflect blame due to emerging testimonies regarding real-time warnings he received. Bar is calling on the Prime Minister to immediately reveal all documents to present the full picture to the public.
