âThe test for a leader is to take tough decisions in complex situations,â the centrist lawmaker said at the close of a long day of prime minister nominations by the Knessetâs (Israel Parliament) parties.
âWe are committed to bringing about the change we promised to the people of Israel. To prevent a government led by a criminal suspect and dependent on racists and extremists,â Lapid stressed.
Israel‘s High Court of Justice ruled on Sunday that the government repeatedly overstepped its authority it barred citizens from departing their homes more than one kilometer during multiple coronavirus lockdowns.
In the eight-to-one decision handed down on Sunday, the court specifically cited Israel‘s second national lockdown last October, noting the government‘s actions constituted a „disproportionate violation of the right to protest and were unconstitutional.“
But as for the institutionalized militarism that terrorizes, wounds and kills people overseas â overwhelmingly people of color â a sad truth is that most progressive U.S. organizations have little to say about it. At the same time, they eagerly and selectively laud King as a visionary and role model.
âWhen these events occurred, we saw the whole world, without exception, standing by Jordan and by His Majesty, and this is evidence of the great respect and great interest in this peaceful and secure country,â Abbas said in televised remarks, referring to the placing of the kingâs half-brother under house arrest.

Yerko Nuñez, Maria Pinckert, Fernando Lopez, and Arturo Murillo are the coup-born regime‘s ex-ministers who have fled the country so far to avoid Justice.
On Sunday, former Water Resources Minister Maria Pinckert left Bolivia, three days after the Prosecutor‘s Office issued an arrest warrant against her over irregularities in her management.

âThe entire proceeding against me was an abuse of the destructive power the prosecution holds,â Netanyahu said at a press conference. The prime minister referred to the hearing as a „charade,“ and went as far as accusing the state prosecution of an „attempted coup.“
„The prosecution opened this investigation against the law⊠and why did they do it? Because they‘re on the hunt,“ Netanyahu claimed.
Nach der alten Verfassung von 1993 hĂ€tte Putin den Kreml 2024 verlassen mĂŒssen. Durch die Annullierung seiner bisherigen Amtszeiten seit 2000 darf er nun aber auch bei den nĂ€chsten beiden PrĂ€sidentenwahlen antreten â und so theoretisch bis 2036 weiterregieren.
Der Premier soll regulatorische GefĂ€lligkeiten von Behörden im Wert von rund 500 Millionen Dollar gewĂ€hrt haben im Gegenzug fĂŒr eine bessere Berichterstattung ĂŒber Netanjahu und seine Frau Sara auf der konzerneigenen Website Walla.
The Covid passport is a revolting idea. Authoritarian. Discriminatory. Un-British. The PM will give us more details in a press conference today but itâs a mark of how far lockdown has warped our values that itâs already being hailed as a âfreedom passâ. The public is all for it, of course: these are the people who call the cops when they see a queue outside a church. Weâve become so used to control that being permitted to do something that in ordinary times would be quite normal, like go to the theatre or attend a football match, is treated as a benign act of mercy by an all-loving state.
There are, though, some people who canât take the vaccine or, like pregnant women, are advised against it.
Banning these people from concerts and football matches would be divisive and discriminatory. As we plan for the peace, we should be vigilant in defence of liberty, where the state has reached too far into our lives, we should kick it out. No government in future should have the power to tell you whether you can see your children or grandchildren, nor should it be able to force you to publish your medical records as a condition for living a normal life.

Boris Johnson wants domestic Covid passports in place by June 21 – but faces the prospect of an embarrassing Commons defeat after promising Tory rebels a vote on their introduction.
Michael Gove is said to have made the offer to furious backbenchers appalled at the idea of forcing Britons to prove their vaccination status to enter pubs and other social hubs.
Boris Johnson wants the scheme to be up and running for June 21, when the last social distancing measures are expected to be swept away.
Joe Bidenâs first significant foray into Latin America policy began in the early 2000s when he was a US senator. As the top Democrat on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, he helped President Bill Clinton secure funding for Plan Colombia, an initiative that equipped and trained Colombian military and police forces engaged, in theory, in counternarcotics activities.

The second group of witnesses are to testify in the so-called Case 1000 â the illicit gifts affair. First up will be businessman Arnon Milchan, who according to the indictment gave Netanyahu gifts valued at hundreds of thousands of shekels. The prosecution recently announced that it had moved up the testimony of the witnesses in this case, following a report in Haaretz that the prosecutors feared the prime minister could exert undue influence on Milchan.
(17.02.2021)
According to Channel 13 news, Netanyahu phoned Milchan on consecutive days last year around May or June, apparently around the time of the Shavuot holiday, telling him how much he and his wife Sara love the Hollywood producer and his family.
The calls came after Netanyahu pressured Milchan to release lawyer Boaz Ben Tzur so he could instead represent the prime minister, the network said.
So far, Likud and the ultra-Orthodox parties Shas and United Torah Judaism have thrown their support behind Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Kahol Lavan and Yesh Atid recommended the latter‘s chairman, Yair Lapid, and Naftali Bennett‘s Yamina, courted by both blocs, put forth its own chairman as their candidate.
After consultations with Yamina, Rivlin, who stressed his difficulty to see a clear path to a stable coalition, said he may pass on the mandate to form a coalition to the Knesset.
Vor Beginn der Zeugenbefragung sprach Liat Ben Ari heute im Bezirksgericht in Jerusalem von einem schwerwiegenden Korruptionsfall.
Netanjahu habe seine groĂe Macht zu persönlichen Zwecken missbraucht und zentralen Medien im Land VergĂŒnstigungen gewĂ€hrt, unter anderem, um wiedergewĂ€hlt zu werden.
Israels Premierminister steht wegen Machtmissbrauchs und Korruption vor Gericht, und doch wird eine Regierungsbildung ohne ihn schwer.
Yeshua, the first witness, is testifying on the claims that Walla gave favorable coverage to Netanyahu at the request of Walla owner Shaul Elovitch. The latter, who was the controlling shareholder of the telecommunications giant Bezeq, is accused of bribing the prime minister, which, according to the indictment against Netanyahu and Elovitch, he did in exchange for regulatory benefits the prime minister gave Bezeq when he was communications minister.

Even Vietnam, which has centuries long animosity with China and more tense relations over the South China Sea, shows no intentions of joining QUAD. Besides the lack of interest from Vietnam, and likely from Indonesia too, QUAD members themselves, at this point in time, have not named any specific candidates to join their anti-China coalition.
Phuc was the only candidate nominated for president, as Trong — who had held the presidency since 2018 after the sudden death of his predecessor — stepped down.
Lead prosecutor Liat Ben-Ari told judges that Netanyahu was involved in „a serious case of government corruption.“
