Where in the World is Avigdor Lieberman? (Ya Ne Znayo!)
Israel’s foreign minister could be indicted:
“Arab media quote Israeli media reports that Israeli police are leaning toward recommending an indictment of Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman on charges of hampering justice in cases of perjury, embezzlement, money-laundering, among others….Lieberman was questioned by police for more than 5 hours yesterday, based on the basis of evidence that may warrant charges being filed against the new foreign minister.”
Just as I wrote here last week: but I though it won’t get to this stage for another year or two, in time for the next Israeli election.
No wonder he has not been making the rounds of foreign countries: not even the normal destinations for a new Israeli foreign minister like the United States, Egypt, Jordan, and Papua-New Guinea (forget about Old Europe and such places as Universal Studios and Disney World). He has been hidden in an undisclosed location since he took the job.
This only shows the depths to which Netanyahu would go to become prime minister, picking a quasi-thug. Still, it would be interesting to see him at the inevitable press conference alongside Secretary of State Hillary Clinton: the moderate liberal American standing with the most extreme right winger in Israel, bar none. Would she hold her nose, hold her breath, or just breathe through the mouth?
