Mr. President @realDonaldTrump, Your pressure regarding a pardon in the fake cases that were stitched up against Prime Minister Netanyahu is welcome. But it is important to understand who is blocking even a discussion of that request. Israel’s Attorney General, Gali Baharav-Miara, is preventing any discussion of the pardon, while Supreme Court President Yitzhak Amit is backing her and preventing her dismissal, while also striking down laws passed by Israel’s elected legislature. Since the United States stands for democracy in Israel, it is time to impose serious personal sanctions against both of them. Thank you, Mr. President, for standing with the State of Israel and the free world.
