#ISRAEL: Prime Minister Netanyahu Indicted

[world politics news]


Attorney General Mandelblit announced an indictment Thursday against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, making him the first prime minister in Israeli history to be indicted while still in office.

The indictment decision could alter the course of negotiations over forming a new government and who will be the new prime minister in the current 21 days Knesset process on the issue.

The editor of the Jerusalem Post, Yaakov Katz, urged Netanyahu to resign from office, even though the nation's constitution, the Basic Law, allows prime ministers to remain in power even if indicted.
