- The Likud party called Avi Gil's claims of protocol forgery by Tzachi Braverman a "false blood libel."
- A police investigation into the alleged forgery two years ago recommended closing the case due to lack of evidence.
- The Likud party suggested that political opponents are attempting to revive the issue out of panic.
- The party indicated opponents fear forming a government without Arab parties, Yair Golan, Liberman, and Bennett.
The Likud party on Sunday vehemently rejected claims made by former Director-General of the Prime Minister's Office Avi Gil regarding an alleged forgery of protocols by Chief of Staff Tzachi Braverman. Likud described Gil's accusations as a "false blood libel" that had already been thoroughly investigated by the police two years prior.
According to the party, the police investigation concluded with a recommendation to close the case due to a lack of evidence. Likud suggested that attempts to revive the issue by the political left indicate panic, particularly from figures like Gabi Ashkenazi, who they believe recognize the necessity of Arab parties, Yair Golan, Liberman, and Bennett for forming a government.
The Likud statement implies that the renewed focus on the alleged protocol forgery is a politically motivated tactic by opponents who fear their inability to form a coalition without a broad spectrum of parties, including those representing Arab citizens.
