Criminals need to stick up for each other Trump calls for Netanyahu’s ‘witch hunt’ corruption trial in Israel to be cancelled
US President Trump has praised Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu for being a “WARRIOR†in Israel’s recent war with Iran, and said he was “shocked†to just learn that the Israeli leader will face a hearing on Monday in a long-running corruption trial.
“Bibi Netanyahu’s trial should be CANCELLED, IMMEDIATELY, or a Pardon given to a Great Hero, who has done so much for the State [of Israel],†Trump wrote on his social media platform Truth Social on Wednesday.
Trump described Netanyahu’s trial as a “politically motivated caseâ€, a “witch hunt†and a “travesty of justiceâ€.
“It was the United States of America that saved Israel [in its war with Iran], and now it is going to be the United States of America that saves Bibi Netanyahu,†he said.
In 2019, Israeli prosecutors indicted Netanyahu on charges of bribery, fraud and breach of trust. The trial began in 2020 and involves three criminal cases.
Netanyahu could face up to 10 years in prison if convicted of bribery, and a maximum three-year term for fraud and breach of trust. Netanyahu has pleaded not guilty to all of the charges.
He claimed to be unwell at the last hearing, left court and launched the attack on Iran... |
Sickening reading this crap, considering his views on Zelensky.
