Will Netanyahu's trial become his winning card in the elections?

An opinion piece on Channel 14 claims that Mandelblit's testimony revealed flaws in Netanyahu's cases, and that the attempt to influence public opinion before the elections could backfire on its initiators, similar to the 2019 elections.

An opinion piece on Channel 14 claims that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's trial could actually become a winning card for him in the upcoming elections. The writer, Dana Varon, relies on the testimony of former Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit on Thursday, which she claims revealed flaws in Netanyahu's cases after Mandelblit admitted he does not remember approving the bribery investigation. The article compares the situation to the 2019 elections, when a notice of suspicions was filed just before the polls and the public refused to believe them. The writer argues that the attempt to influence public opinion just before the elections could backfire on its initiators, and that the public arrives 'sober, sharp, and aware of every rotten seam.' The article ends with a call to turn the wheel and collapse the legal conspiracy through the ballot box.
