  • Peter stated that revelations in court confirm previous allegations of illegal wiretaps and improper approvals.
  • He asserted that the right wing was correct all along regarding law enforcement conduct.

Lawyer David Peter stated on Sunday that revelations from the investigation in the Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu trial strengthen claims previously made by right-wing groups regarding the conduct of law enforcement. Speaking on the program "Pתחי וזמרי בעם," Peter asserted that criminal offenses were committed during the investigations and demanded prosecution for those responsible.

Peter argued that claims previously dismissed regarding the approval of investigations and illegal wiretaps around the Prime Minister have now been substantiated by court testimonies. "The right was correct all along," Peter declared, adding that these allegations, which were previously met with skepticism, are now being exposed repeatedly through the ongoing investigations. He noted that former Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit is also facing these issues.

Beyond the legal proceedings, Peter believes the right wing was also correct on other matters, including policy towards Palestinians and security issues. He criticized the perceived impunity of law enforcement officials, stating that individuals within the system are not held accountable for criminal actions. "It is completely distorted that if you belong to the law enforcement system and commit criminal offenses, you are immune from prosecution," he said.

Peter emphasized that accountability should apply equally to all individuals, regardless of their position. "Every person, whether a lawyer, a judge, a general, a rabbi, or a kadi, if they commit a criminal offense, they must stand trial," he clarified. He concluded by unequivocally stating that criminal offenses were committed by the law enforcement system in these cases and that those responsible must be prosecuted.
