Everyone knows Avigdor Lieberman is the Foreign Minister of the Jewish State of Israel, and he's a controversial fellow, with his little slogans of "there is not citizenship without loyalty," the fact that "he understands Arabic," his plan for the I/P conflict which would be a massive landswap that would strip many Arab-Israelis of citizenship.
But now, there is bigger fish to fry for Авигдор,
Police on Sunday recommended that the state prosecution to indict Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman on charges of bribery, fraud, money laundering, witness harassment and obstruction of justice.
A police source has said the investigation is "practically over," and the body of evidence is sufficient to support an indictment on the charges.
Lieberman released a statement in response to the police announcement, saying there were no grounds for the indictment and that he was the victim of persecution.
"For 13 years the police have conducted a campaign of persecution against me," the foreign minister said. "As much as my political strength and the strength of Yisrael Beiteinu rise, the campaign of persecution also intensifies."
In addition, police believe Lieberman and his associates tried to obstruct the police investigation in at least three separate instances, by changing the names of companies he allegedly established in Cyprus after he suspected the police had identified them.
Now, I hope a fair but thorough investigation can go thru. This man hasn't exactly been honest in the past. But I also hope Bibi learns that its time to get a new FM. This guy is really, truly, an embarassment on the international stage, and doesn't help the "peace industry" as he likes to call it. Maybe he can go back to his settlement in Nordkim, tho if there's a two state solution, maybe Moldova can have him back.
