File 11070-10-10

On February 13, 2013, the Court of Nazareth provided an unforgettable event after Judge George Azulay issued the verdict on File 11070-10-10. The case deals with a man who was requested by a police squad-car to stop in order to pass an alcohol test. The event ended badly. The man was arrested and accused with assault of policemen trying to fulfill their task, insulting of a civil servant, blocking a policeman in his duty, and the destruction of public goods. Several policemen provided testimony of this monstrous attack on the State of Israel. The chance of the man being found innocent were infinitesimal; Israeli courts invariably favor the testimony of State workers (this is unacceptable, these people get salaries from the State and thus are interested parties). Yet, the man, whose identity is now protected, was found innocent. The State-prosecutor was caught on the Court security cameras giving the policemen the file. This was enough to render the process illegal. Yet, the policemen, after reading with interest the thick file of lies, coordinated their testimonies while still in front of the camera. The defendant attorney waited patiently while the police conducted its criminal charade, and when his turn arrived, he requested showing the video from the Court's security cameras as evidence. In his verdict, the judge claimed, "I have no choice but to accept the defendant attorney's claim that the policemen's testimony cannot be trusted..." A further investigation disclosed that the defendant had just asked questions regarding the policemen's authority to harass him; the policemen answer was a decision to "teach him a lesson." Sadly, the criminal policemen are still free; beware while visiting Israel.

Entrapping the Prime Minister

On July 10, 2012, the Jerusalem District Court absolved former Prime Minister Ehud Olmert of the majority of the corruption charges brought against him. These had caused his impeachment in 2008. He was charged with fraud, breach of trust, falsifying corporate records, tax evasion and receiving illicit benefits in the cases known as the Talansky Affair and the Rishon Tours Double Billing Scandal. He was acquitted of everything except for breach of trust in the Investment Center case. Police may harass a regular citizen and get away with it; doing the same to the prime minister is more difficult. Since their fiasco, the false accusation is under investigation. The picture disclosed in Court is troubling. The State hired known criminals to entrap the Prime Minister in illegitimate real estate deals. The criminals were used as underground agents and as State witnesses, who got State protection for any crime they committed during the entrapment operation. The State revealed in Court that this has become its main means of "proving crimes;" of course, the only crimes committed under such conditions are by the State, or to be more exact, the Police State.
