The testimony submitted by the Chin Bet’s Chief Ronen Bar to the High Court of Justice on Monday managed to shake the Israeli occupation entity expecting several consequences in this regard.
The testimony was a thunderous alarm call for the Israeli public, according to an article published by “Times of Israel”.
“The head of one of the country’s central security agencies officially and explicitly informed the court that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu demanded personal loyalty from him – to obey the prime minister, that is, rather than the law or the courts – and that Netanyahu systematically sought to harness the Shin Bet’s far-reaching capabilities for his personal and political benefit.”
“It is also reasonable to expect that echoes of the full affidavit’s content will be included in Netanyahu’s own response to the court, which he is due to submit on Thursday — unless he backs out at the last moment,” the report added.
Maariv newspaper considered that the testimony submitted by Shin Bet chief Ronen Bar to the Supreme Court confirms a well-known fact that Benjamin Netanyahu is a Mafia boss.
Maariv added that the court may revoke the government’s decision to sack Bar due to his testimony.
What follows are excerpts from Bar’s testimony published by the Israeli media:
Requests by the Prime Minister to act in violation of these criteria were refused. In many instances, the Prime Minister sought to raise such matters at the end of work meetings – after instructing the military secretary and the stenographer operating the recording device to leave the room, with the clear intent of ensuring that these exchanges would not be documented.
The Prime Minister expressed to me, on more than one occasion, his desire to see the Shin Bet act against citizens involved in protest activity and demonstrations against the government.
The Prime Minister exerted unusual and repeated pressure on me to issue a directive… in effect, rendering the trial impossible to carry out
