JOHN CHUCKMAN COMMENT: NETANYAHU'S WIFE TO FACE CORRUPTION CHARGES - THE APPALLING RECORD OF ISRAEL'S LEADERSHIP - SO MUCH CORRUPTION AND KILLING IN SO FEW YEARS - EINSTEIN'S QUOTE



COMMENT POSTED TO AN ARTICLE IN THE INDEPENDENT


"Benjamin Netanyahu's wife Sara to stand trial over corruption charges"

The police have the goods on Netanyahu, too.

It's just his huge political pull preventing charges so far.

This pair have the distinction of being both financially corrupt and being war criminals.

By the way, there seems to be a pattern in the country's leadership.

Ehud Olmert did prison time as well as kill plenty of people.

Ariel Sharon escaped prison for corruption by the skin of his teeth, but his record of killing is exceptional.

Several previous ones, Menachem Begin and Yitzhak Shamir, were simply terrorists who helped kill many people.

I think Albert Einstein was right when he said:

"My awareness of the essential nature of Judaism resists the idea of a Jewish state with borders, an army, and a measure of temporal power, no matter how modest. I am afraid of the inner damage Judaism will sustain - especially from the development of a narrow nationalism within our own ranks, against which we have already had to fight strongly, even without a Jewish state."
