Another bombshell… For decades, I have been saying something most Israelis, and Jews worldwide, refused to believe: The most corrupt institution in Israel is our judicial system, particularly the powerful officials at the top, led by consecutive Attorney Generals. And now, the revelations are becoming impossible to ignore. One of Israel's leading journalists, Amit Segal, has released extraordinary recordings of Boaz Balat, the head of the Israel Police Investigations Division. Israel's top police investigator describes “investigations” allegedly kept in drawers, only to be pulled out when officials need leverage over someone, whether politicians, police officers or even fellow judicial officials. Think about that. This is not some conspiracy theorist speaking. This is one of the most senior law enforcement officials in Israel, someone involved in handling sensitive investigations, including the scandal surrounding the former IDF Military Advocate General, whose case has been buried by the Attorney General for over a year despite the IDF Attorney General admitting to leaking a fabricated libelous video that harmed Israel diplomatically and will remain a stain on the Jewish people forever. For years, people refused to listen. Because who wanted to possibly believe that the very officials entrusted with upholding the law were using the justice system like a mafia, advancing their own ideological agenda, political interests and protecting their own power? Yet that is precisely the disturbing picture these revelations raise. And look at the timing! The Netanyahu corruption trials have faced devastating questions about investigative procedures, including testimony from former Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit personally responsible for indicting Netanyahu. He admitted to irregular and potentially unlawful investigative methods to indict Netanyahu despite no actual proof of wrongdoing. Where is the full public scrutiny??? Meanwhile, serious allegations of foreign funding and improper election interference remain unresolved. Instead of demanding complete transparency about what could be one of the gravest election steals in Israeli history, the powerful judicial system and mainstream media are trying to bury it all and move on in their most important task, toppling Netanyahu. And now comes another extraordinary development. The political left, after campaigning fiercely over the ultra-Orthodox draft issue, is exploring arrangements with the very ultra-Orthodox parties it attacked throughout the election campaign. Even more astonishing are reports that legal figures are offering assurances that an ultra-orthodox draft law passed under an Eizenkot/Liberman government would survive judicial review. How can politicians possibly promise what supposedly independent judges will decide? What should be screaming headlines is that If a right-wing government passed a similar law, the Supreme Court would strike it down, and everyone knows it, that’s why the Ultra-Orthodox are considering jumping to join an Eizenkot government. But if a left-led government passes one, suddenly there may be guarantees? This is political blackmail by the judicial system to topple a government. In English that’s called a coup, not “law”. And it helps explain the sudden willingness from the center/left parties to consider political alliances that contradict campaign promises, including arrangements involving anti-Israel Arab parties or the ultra-Orthodox. Because protecting the power and abuse of the existing unelected deep state judicial establishment is more important to some politicians than the principles they promised their voters. This is what I have warned about for decades: An unelected judicial establishment wielding extraordinary power over elected governments, preventing the Israeli Right from implementing the policies its voters elected it to pursue. How do we fix a system when the officials who must be investigated also possess enormous power over the institutions responsible for investigating them? I don't pretend to have a simple answer. But I do know this: Their power ultimately depends on public legitimacy and trust. And every new revelation, every unanswered question, every apparent double standard chips away at that trust. For decades, the mainstream media dismissed these concerns or refused to investigate them seriously. Today, thanks to journalists willing to expose what is happening behind closed doors, more Israelis can examine the evidence themselves. For those of us who have been sounding this alarm for decades, watching these revelations unfold is extraordinary. But this is not about vindication. It is about saving Israeli democracy. A democracy cannot survive when its unelected legal authorities are perceived as political rulers above the law. The truth must come out. Every allegation must be investigated. Every official must be accountable, regardless of position or political affiliation. The Israeli people deserve a justice system that serves the law, not a political agenda. And I believe that, with God's help, we will overcome this as well. The system that was supposed to protect Israeli democracy must never be allowed to rule in its place. Injustice done by the justice system is infuriating, but remember, this is a spiritual war over the soul of the Jewish nation of Israel. Those who believe in God and the destiny of the Jewish people back as sovereign in our God-given, indigenous, ancestral homeland will prevail. Those trying to turn Israel into another Western democratic nation devoid of Jewish character, being led by the deep state unelected judicial officials, will fail. Strengthen your faith. We will overcome. How? First, by sharing these truths and waking up more people to this reality they have been ignoring. Am Yisrael Chai!!!
