Good. I hope that prick's guilty and he goes down for a long time.
I see Netanyahu as one of a bunch of leaders (along with Trump, Johnson, etc.) who will say or do anything to get or hold power. They don't care about responsibilities of good governance, truth, justice, etc. Political standards of propriety have I think for a long time been upheld by convention and a communal sense of decency in the West. As this has declined in the last decade or two, some leaders have decided to ride that fall for all its worth into demagoguery and lowest common denominator populism, hastening the rot.
