Attorney David Peter, who was recently secured in the 16th slot on the Likud list for the Knesset, was interviewed yesterday (Tuesday) on the program "The Patriots" hosted by Yinon Magal. In the interview, Peter spoke about his sense of mission since receiving the slot and his sacrifice of a lucrative legal career. He described how he grew up in poverty, collected clothes from piles at WIZO, and emphasized that the values of Zionism and the State of Israel stand above money. Peter recounted his meeting with Prime Minister Netanyahu, whom he described as a leader who brought down Nasrallah, attacked the Iranian nuclear program, and said that when Netanyahu asked him to join the effort, there was no question. The main criticism from Peter was directed at law enforcement authorities in the Netanyahu trial. He claimed that senior police officers engaged in improper collaborations with journalists to "stitch up investigations" and bypass legal restrictions, calling it a "terror attack on democracy." Peter also criticized the composition of the judges in the trial, arguing that their passive conduct was wrong and that the severity of the matters should lead to an immediate acquittal. Towards the end, he called for comprehensive and holistic legal reform that would restore political freedom and trust in equality before the law.
