    Default After falling short in Israel's election, Netanyahu set to confront his legal fate

    “In these 2019 elections of April and September, escaping court and possibly jail was Netanyahu’s political raison d’etre,"


    As this week's election results and exit polls continue to make grim reading for Benjamin Netanyahu, Israel's longest-serving prime minister not only faces the possible end of his political career but also a probable court appearance and potentially even jail due to allegations of corruption.

    Netanyahu had hoped to pass legislation that would prevent him from being indicted on multiple allegations of corruption — but he can only do so if he remains prime minister. Netanyahu denies any wrongdoing and has said he is the victim of a politically orchestrated "witch-hunt" by the media and the left. But he may have to make that case in court.


    With the pre-trial hearing in less than two weeks, Netanyahu is also running out of time to pass legislation.

    — Golda Meir

    Zionism is the movement for the self-determination and statehood for the Jewish people in their ancestral homeland, the land of Israel.
