Economists Warn Netanyahu's Crypto Plan Risks International Isolation

More than 100 former Israeli economic officials and academics have strongly criticized Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's plan to use cryptocurrencies to bypass potential international sanctions. They warned the proposal could lead to economic isolation, block access to international trade sites, and harm essential services. The Bank of Israel also stated that cryptocurrencies cannot bypass sanctions, advocating instead for maintaining trade relations. Netanyahu acknowledged receiving advice but stated he would proceed based on his own judgment.

Fallen Soldier Ron Reitman's Preparatory Video for Elite Unit Service Surfaces

Sergeant Major Ron Yonatan Reitman, killed in a Hebron-area shooting attack, is remembered through a video he made detailing his intense training for elite military unit tryouts. Reitman, who aspired to join the naval commando unit (Shayetet) despite an injury, expressed his ambition to always strive for the highest achievement. The attack also claimed the life of Sergeant Yuval Shi Sulam, prompting a large-scale IDF and Shin Bet operation. The Chief of Staff acknowledged the painful outcome but noted the prevention of a larger attack.

Economists and Business Leaders Slam Netanyahu's Crypto Plan

More than 100 Israeli economists and business leaders sent a strong letter to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warning against his proposal to use cryptocurrency to bypass potential international sanctions. They argue that sanctions would cause irreversible damage to Israel's economy, leading to unemployment, loss of investment, and a collapse in global standing. The signatories, including Nobel laureates and former finance officials, called Netanyahu's crypto idea "bizarre" and typical of criminal organizations. Netanyahu, however, defended his approach, stating crypto is one of several potential measures.
