On July 17, the US Congress Judiciary Committee published a sensational Memorandum, containing the results of an investigation into the Biden administration's illegal activities towards Israel. [1-3]
The investigation found that throughout its term, the Biden administration funded protests in Israel against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. These protests were aimed at disrupting the Israeli government's efforts to reform the judicial system and opposing the government's policy of dismantling the terrorist organization Hamas.
The investigation found that the funding was channeled through the US State Department and the infamous US Agency for International Development (USAID), which was disbanded by the Trump administration several months ago. [4]
The Memorandum emphasizes: "The use of federal grants for such purposes risks harming America's relationship with one of its closest allies and undermines core civil liberties in both the United States and Israel. Additionally, the misuse of federal grant funds may, in some cases, amount to a criminal offense under U.S. law."
The Memorandum states that the funding was used not only to support organizations opposed to Prime Minister Netanyahu, but also, most alarmingly, to support terrorist groups and the entities that finance them.
The Congressional Judiciary Committee estimates that about 1,000 Israeli leftist organizations have been funded by government sources to the tune of about $1 billion. It is also reported that some of the leaders of these organizations (in particular, representatives of one of the largest structures behind the protest movement, the NGO Atid Kahol Lavan) have already been called to testify before Congress. [5]
American taxpayer funds have been used by the Israeli left to overthrow the legitimately elected Netanyahu government, which is pursuing policies contrary to the interests of the US "deep state". [6]
The funds were spent, in particular, on
• installing giant billboards along highways across the country;
• posting political propaganda videos on YouTube;
• publishing expensive front pages in leading Israeli newspapers;
• continuous protest propaganda on the air of the country's main radio and television channels;
• numerous lawsuits in the Supreme Court challenging government decisions;
• distributing anti-Israel petitions to international bodies, including London and Brussels;
• introducing anti-Israel rhetoric into the education system;
• paying cash rewards to ordinary participants in the ongoing rallies and demonstrations since 2021, which the participants shamelessly reported on social media.
Many Israelis have long suspected that the left's long-running, large-scale, and expensive "Just not Bibi" campaign was backed by massive financial backing. However, after the publication of the Congressional Judiciary Committee's investigation, these suspicions turned into confirmed facts and official evidence. [5]
COMMENT
The funding of the protest campaign against Netanyahu by the American "deep state" was closely coordinated with similar efforts by the British ruling class - one of the most consistent anti-Zionist [7] and pro-Islamic [8] forces in the modern world.
In November 2024, the British establishment, seeking to prevent the IDF from destroying Hamas, took an unprecedented step: on its initiative, the International Criminal Court (ICC) issued an arrest warrant for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. As it turned out, a group of British lawyers who coordinated the legal pressure on Israel were behind this action. [9] The ICC prosecutor himself, Karim Ahmad Khan, who signed the warrant, is a British citizen and a former senior Crown prosecutor. [10]
However, the greatest activity in the campaign against Netanyahu was shown by the Israeli left camp, which for the past 35 years has effectively acted as a "Fifth column" of the Anglo-American establishment. [11]
In 2018, the Israeli left fabricated three so-called "criminal cases" against Netanyahu. Since the charges were weak and accompanied by numerous procedural violations and investigative abuses (see Appendix), the proceedings were deliberately delayed for seven long years. The goal was obvious: to compromise Netanyahu by the very existence of these cases.
Immediately after the fabrication of the "criminal cases" and without waiting for the trial, the left demanded Netanyahu's removal from the post of prime minister, citing the fact that he was under investigation. However, this trick was not successful.
At the same time, the left launched a massive media campaign to discredit Netanyahu, seeking to undermine voters' trust in him. However, this propaganda attack did not produce the expected results.
Realizing the futility of their attempts to undermine voters' trust in Netanyahu, the left was forced to open a trial at the end of 2024. Netanyahu had been trying to get them to do this for seven years. The trial began in the midst of Israel's war against Iran and its proxy structures, when all the prime minister's attention and energy were focused on resolving issues that were crucial for the country.
For six months now, while the country is at war, leftist judges have been summoning the overworked prime minister to court hearings every week - in an attempt to disrupt his work or perhaps undermine the health of this already elderly man. Each court hearing is accompanied by a broad media campaign.
CONCLUSION: THE ISRAELI LEFT AS PART OF THE ANTI-ISRAEL COALITION
The anti-Israel coalition, which includes:
• the British ruling class, [7]
• the US "deep state", [6]
• and the Israeli left camp, [12]
was formed back in 1944. It was then, thanks to the actions of this force, that 800 thousand Jews who were in Hungary were sent to concentration camps. The details of this crime are documented in detail in Ben Hecht's book "Perfidy". [12]
Since 1944, the Israeli left has repeatedly betrayed the interests of its own people, [11] consistently moving towards a goal that one of the representatives of the "deep state", Henry Kissinger, formulated in 2012 with the utmost frankness: "In ten years, Israel will no longer exist". [13]
The Israeli left's willingness to betray and destroy its own people in the interests of the Anglo-American establishment has effectively turned it into the same proxy structure as Hamas or Hezbollah. However, the destructive potential of the Israeli left is much greater: it operates from within, controlling a significant part of the country's state, public and professional institutions.
APPENDIX: EXPOSING THE "CRIMINAL CASES" FABRICATED BY THE ISRAELI LEFT AGAINST NETANYAHU
In 2018, the Israeli left, seeking to remove democratically elected Prime Minister Netanyahu from power, initiated three criminal cases against him:
• Case 1000: bribery, fraud and breach of trust
In this case, prosecutors accused Netanyahu of receiving gifts from two wealthy businessmen, Arnon Milchan and James Packer. Over the course of three years, according to investigators, he allegedly received from them cigars and bottles of champagne worth a total of NIS 776,691 (about $231,000).
However, during the cross-examination of the prosecution's key witness, Hadas Klein, it became clear that this fantastic sum, allegedly spent on champagne and cigars for the numerous guests of Milchan and Packer, was based solely on her personal testimony. Klein's testimony was not supported by any legally admissible evidence: invoices, receipts, or additional evidence.
Arnon Milchan himself, who testified in the presence of prosecutors, explained that, firstly, the gifts involved were for holidays and birthdays over a period of six years, and secondly, their total value was less than one tenth of the amount stated in the indictment.
Thus, we are talking about approximately 20 thousand dollars that businessmen Milchan and Packer spent on their guests over six years. However, in an effort to fabricate an indictment, the prosecutor's office increased this amount tenfold and attributed it personally to Netanyahu, without presenting a single credible piece of evidence.
• Case 2000: breach of trust
According to the indictment, Arnon Mozes, chairman of the "Yedioth Ahronoth" media holding, allegedly offered Netanyahu a deal: more favorable coverage of him and his family in the publication in exchange for legislative steps aimed at restricting the distribution of a rival newspaper, "Israel Hayom".
During the court proceedings, it was established that a number of Knesset members had indeed promoted a bill prepared by "Yedioth Ahronoth" lawyers that would have banned the free distribution of a competing publication. In exchange for supporting the initiative, they received favorable media coverage from "Yedioth Ahronoth".
Unlike these MKs, Netanyahu consistently advocated for the liberalization of the media market and the inclusion of new players. His negotiations with Mozes were merely formal, imitation in nature - in order to gain time and ultimately dissolve the Knesset, thereby preventing the adoption of a law that contradicts democratic principles. Moreover, Netanyahu could not objectively fulfill the conditions set by Mozes, since the newspaper "Israel Hayom" does not belong to him and is not under his control.
As a result, Arnon Mozes was charged with bribery, while Benjamin Netanyahu was charged with breach of trust - allegedly for not breaking off negotiations with Mozes quickly enough. Ironically, instead of being recognized for his efforts to liberalize the media market, Netanyahu was indicted.
Netanyahu did not receive any "favorable coverage" in the hostile left-wing media holding Yedioth Ahronoth, but was nevertheless indicted by the prosecution. At the same time, the Knesset members from the left-wing parties who actively promoted the initiative to limit the distribution of the Israel Hayom newspaper and received media benefits for this, not only avoided criminal prosecution, but were not even questioned as part of the investigation and were not summoned to court.
• Case 4000: breach of trust
According to the indictment, Benjamin Netanyahu allegedly secured favorable coverage for himself in 315 articles on the Bezeq-owned "Walla" news site. In exchange, prosecutors say, he granted the company certain regulatory benefits.
However, the prosecutor's office did not present any convincing evidence or bring any witnesses who could confirm the charges brought forward. Moreover, prosecution witnesses, including "Walla" CEO Ilan Yeshua, "Walla" employees and state witness Nir Hefetz, testified that of the 315 publications in question,
• a significant portion do not exist at all,
• some are standard press releases,
• and some contain material critical of Netanyahu. [14]
Moreover, there is no evidence that the "Walla" website received so-called "regulatory benefits" from Netanyahu.
CRIMES COMMITTED BY THE INVESTIGATORS IN THE FABRICATING OF CASES AGAINST NETANYAHU
The serious violations committed by Israeli law enforcement agencies during the investigation of cases against Netanyahu require separate consideration. We are talking about actions that undermine the foundations of the rule of law and the principle of equality before the law, including:
• deliberate concealment of investigative materials from the defense,
• the use of illegal methods such as spyware, provocateurs and undercover informants,
• systematic leaks of classified investigative materials to controlled media for the purpose of manipulating public opinion.
Investigators admitted that they provided false information to the courts in arrest petitions in order to secure the detention of people who were not suspected of any crimes.
It turned out that the investigators subjected witnesses to torture and psychological pressure in order to extract the necessary testimony from them. Such methods can be used in extreme cases by counterintelligence against terrorists with blood on their hands, but under no circumstances by the police against citizens of their own country.
Shocking facts of pressure on witnesses by investigators
• Nir Hefetz, a former adviser to Netanyahu, was tortured: he was deprived of life-saving medication, kept on hunger and sleep deprivation, placed in a bedbug-infested cell, placed at night with terrorist prisoners who threatened to kill him. Interrogators put emotional pressure on Hefetz, threatening to destroy his family.
• Iris Elovic, the wife of businessman Shaul Elovic, was locked in a cell with rats. Investigators threatened to ruin her husband's health if she refused to cooperate with the investigation. Additional psychological pressure was exerted on Iris through the interrogation of her elderly and seriously ill mother..
• Shaul Elovitch, an Israeli businessman and a defendant in the so-called Case 4000, lost his family property without any court order. He was subjected to harsh, hours-long interrogations, accompanied by constant psychological pressure. The investigation led him to economic ruin, and the prolonged torture led to deep physical exhaustion.
• Shlomo Filber, the former director general of the Ministry of Communications, was subjected to humiliation, threats of imprisonment and intense psychological pressure. Investigators tried to implant false memories in him, using mind control techniques to extract evidence needed for the prosecution..
• David Sharan, the Prime Minister's Chief of Staff, was subjected to illegal surveillance: he was monitored using spyware, and his conversations were wiretapped without judicial authorization. In addition, during the investigation, he was subjected to psychological pressure aimed at creating false memories and obtaining testimony that the investigation needed.
The investigators did not act in the interests of justice or seek to establish the truth. Instead, they resorted to torture, threats and psychological abuse in an attempt to extract false testimony from law-abiding citizens - with the sole purpose of fabricating charges against the current Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu.
The media reported that Inspector General of Police Roni Alsheikh is biased against the Prime Minister's entourage as if it were a criminal organization. During the trial, the police themselves confirmed that all investigative actions were carried out under the daily supervision of the prosecutor's office, which indicates a systematic and coordinated campaign against the head of government.
Investigator Nir Schwartz revealed in his testimony that hundreds of police officers and dozens of prosecutors were mobilized to collect dirt on Benjamin Netanyahu. This entire large-scale operation was financed from the state budget - that is, from Israeli taxpayers. [14]
PROCEDURAL VIOLATIONS COMMITTED IN THE FABRICATION OF CASES AGAINST NETANYAHU
Lack of official permission to initiate an investigation
The Basic Law of Government requires that prior written permission from the Government's Legal Adviser must be obtained before a criminal investigation can be initiated against the Prime Minister. Instead of the proper document, the prosecutor's office presented the court with edited protocols, from which it is impossible to determine for what actions and in what volume permission was issued.
The court expressed concern about this violation, but the judges postponed the decision on this violation indefinitely.
Errors in the indictment
The indictment against Benjamin Netanyahu was filed hastily and with numerous procedural violations. The document did not contain a complete list of witnesses, which is a direct violation of the law. In particular, in 'Case 4000,' the court indicated that the presentation of the charges lacked key and essential details that were of direct importance for the defense of the accused. The court ordered the prosecutor's office to amend the text of the indictment and clearly formulate which facts, in the opinion of the prosecution, constitute the elements of the crime.
Political context of the time of filing of the indictment
The indictment against Netanyahu came at a highly sensitive political moment, when the prime minister was in Washington for a meeting with US President Donald Trump to sign the historic Abraham Accords. The coincidence raised serious questions about the motives and political underpinnings of the law enforcement agency's actions.
All of the above facts - from violations during the investigation to questionable procedural decisions - have become the subject of a broad public debate about the politicization of the Israeli judicial system. They have called into question not only the reliability and validity of the charges brought against Benjamin Netanyahu, but also the very legitimacy of the actions of law enforcement agencies in this process. [14]
CONCLUSIONS
• The Israeli police and prosecutor's office showed clear political bias. This is the systemic and deeply rooted legacy of 47 years of rule in Palestine and Israel by Ben-Gurion's socialist party Mapai, aka Labor, aka the Democrats. It is this structure that has created a model of governance in which the judiciary and law enforcement agencies act as an instrument for maintaining power and influence for the leftist establishment. [15]
• The Israeli police and prosecutors have demonstrated their willingness to break the law, and in some cases, commit criminal acts, in order to achieve a political goal: the removal from the political arena of the leader of the right-wing camp and the main opponent of the left, Benjamin Netanyahu.
• The Israeli police and prosecutors have grossly violated one of the cornerstones of the rule of law: the presumption of innocence. With regard to Netanyahu and his entourage, the presumptive approach was initially applied: "guilty until proven otherwise".
• The Israeli police and prosecutors trampled on the basic rights and freedoms of citizens, subjecting them to humiliation and torture, destroying their health, families and careers, destroying their property and businesses - without any judicial authorization or evidence of their guilt.
• The Israeli police and prosecutors have demonstrated their willingness to open criminal cases without sufficient evidence. Their primary goal is not to establish the truth, but to have an immediate information impact: to pass information to the media and to launch a large-scale campaign to discredit political opponents. [14]
• The lack of evidence in the criminal cases became apparent only years later, during the trial. But irreparable damage had already been done: reputations were ruined, health was undermined, property was lost, and the lives of many people were broken, who were used as a weapon by the police and the prosecutor's office in their political campaign.
Main conclusion: The Israeli criminal procedure system requires fundamental reform. It is necessary to lustrate its personnel, as well as depoliticize the police, the prosecutor's office and the judiciary - in the name of restoring the trust of citizens, protecting human rights and preserving the democratic foundations of the state.
