The Attorney General Explains Failures, Just Not Her Own
Gil Bringer attacks Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara for refusing to appear in the Netanyahu trial, and accuses the prosecution of problematic conduct while referencing the Balt recordings. He criticizes the Change Camp seeking to cancel judicial reforms.
In his column, Gil Bringer attacks Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara, who refused to appear in court during the Netanyahu trial, contrary to the judges' suggestion. The author notes that Netanyahu did appear and testified nearly a hundred times, while Baharav-Miara evades. He elaborates on failures in the prosecution, referencing recordings of Commander Boaz Balt that, according to him, reveal tactical holding of open cases against citizens and police officers. Bringer claims the public is no longer shocked because trust in the judicial system is already at a low. He also addresses the struggle over the composition of the Judicial Selection Committee and laws passed by the previous Knesset, such as the law splitting the Attorney General's role and the Police Internal Investigations Department law, which the Change Camp seeks to cancel. The author criticizes the approach of the Change Camp, which he says wants to preserve unlimited power for the Attorney General and the judicial system.
