Middle East expert Dr. Mordechai Kedar criticized the handling of investigations in Israel, warning of potential attempts to downplay the Ra'amgate affair. In an interview with Channel 14, Kedar suggested that Turkey and local crime syndicates might be involved, though he stressed this was his personal assessment. He called for an expanded and deepened investigation to fully clarify the suspicions.
Kedar emphasized that the outcome of the bribery allegations depends heavily on who leads the investigation, expressing concern that those assigned might not pursue all leads. He sarcastically suggested the former Military Advocate General, Yifat Tomer-Yerushalmi, investigate the matter, noting her "extensive experience in various forgeries." He feared the investigation could be suppressed, similar to how he claimed the MAG's investigation was "suppressed," potentially leading to events being presented as isolated irregularities.
Further elaborating on potential external involvement, Kedar stated, "It's not just Qatar involved here. In my opinion, Turkey is also involved, as well as local crime syndicates." He posited that criminal elements within the Arab community might wish to see Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir removed from the government, as he concerns them. He believes these groups are involved with significant funds, indicating the scope extends beyond Ra'am.
When asked about the basis for his assessment regarding Turkish involvement, Kedar responded, "My heart tells me." He concluded by reiterating the need for a broader and deeper inquiry beyond suspicions related to Ra'am, to examine the possibility of other actors' involvement.
