General Attorney and Prosecution join the elections campain
Reuven 19 Dec 2002
Before the primaries at Labor party, head of Prosecution
Edna Arbel has been asked by several MK's from the Right
how come there is still no decision concerning the results
of the investigation against Izhak Herzog, a candidate at
Labor's primaries.
Izhak Herzog is suspect of collecting illegal donnations
from abroad to Ehud Barak's campain in 1999. In addition
to that he is suspect of using the heritage fund of the
milliarder Octav Butner, while being the attorney in
charge of this fund, as a pipe for transfering the
donnations. This fund was destinated to welfare activities.
The MK's from the Right said that if Herzog enters the
Knesset, he will enjoy immunity for the next 4 years,
after which the delinquency will become obsolete.
The response of Edna Arbel was: "We do not deal with
investigation before the elections, for not influencing
their result".
After the primaries at Likud and Labor parties some
disorders have been reported at both parties elections.
Mrs. Edna Arbel hurried to order the police to start
an investigation agains the Likud party (does she
remember what she said several days ago ?!?).
What about Labor party ? - Nada - she heard nothing. Or
maybe "We do not deal with investigations ... bla bla"
Only after the "Movement for Clean Infrastructure" (HaTnua
LeEichut HaShilton) addressed the General Attorney Elyakim
Rubinstein, and asked to urge the police to investigate
also the Labor Party, Elyakim Rubinstein and Edna Arbel
asked the police to start to "check". (This was said also
in the case of Ezer Weizman, the police had to "check" not
investigate !)
If additional pressure will be put, they will declare an
investigation agains Labor Party, but the police knows
what they mean (just pretend to ...)
Izhak Herzog used the "right to be silent" during his
"investigation". Elyakim Rubinstein and Edna Arbel also
use the right to be silent.
Just ask them "why do you ease on the Left ?", and they
remain silent ...
--------
So what should the Right do ?? Many things, but the
energy should be concentrated in one direction:
Izhak Herzog. We can do: hunger strikes, demonstrations,
letters, write in forums, ask the prime minister to
send them (Arbel & Rubinstein) away - Moti Gilat will
yell (so what ??) ... Edna Arbel is 9 years in function !!
