    Netanyahu questioned in third corruption case

    I really hope Benny gets it right in the jacksy, horrible little bastard.

    Israeli police questioned Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Friday for the first time in a corruption case that involves the country's largest telecommunications company Bezeq, Israel Radio said.
    Along with two other corruption cases, in which Mr Netanyahu is suspected of bribery, the probes pose a serious threat to the four-term prime minister's political survival.
    Mr Netanyahu denies any wrongdoing in all the cases.
    In the newest investigation, known as Case 4000, police allege that the owners of Bezeq Israel Telecom provided favourable coverage of Mr Netanyahu and his wife on a news website they controlled in return for favours from communications regulators.
    A police spokesman declined comment.
    Israel Radio said Mr Netanyahu's wife Sara Netanyahu was providing testimony at the same time, at a police station near Tel Aviv.

    He's a prime member of the club.
    Don't expect anything real to come of it.

    Ooooh poor Benny running to his mate baldy for moral support (or asylum).


    Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will have a brief respite next week from the deluge of legal woes he faces when he heads to Washington to meet US President Donald Trump.
    Even as he prepared for his trip, Netanyahu was again questioned by police in Jerusalem on Friday in connection with alleged corruption as concerns mount over whether he will eventually be forced from office.
    Monday's visit to a White House that has shown enthusiastic support for Israel and Netanyahu may help bolster the long-serving prime minister, who has called Trump a "true friend" of his country.
    Both men have used populist appeals in the face of investigations, with Netanyahu borrowing Trump's "fake news" moniker to denounce reports of his alleged corruption.
    Israeli police recommended last month that Netanyahu be indicted in two corruption cases and investigations are continuing in others.

    Can't it be postulated that all politicians are corrupt?

    I wonder if Trump borrowed some money from Netanyahu or if they did some business deals together.
