Jpost Op-Ed by Dan Netanyahu: My Cousin is Destroying the Country: I Admired Bibi Until I Realized I Had Been Misled - Opinion
A special column by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s cousin, Dan Netanyahu, for Walla.
Bibi is the brother of the late Yoni Netanyahu, an Israeli hero. We share the same family name, passed down from our grandfather, Rabbi Nathan Milikowsky-Netanyahu.
Until the 2015 elections, I supported Bibi. I celebrated his victories with him and shared his frustrations in defeat..
My parents taught me to believe that maintaining a democratic state requires a separation of powers and independence of the executive, legislative, and judicial branches. It also requires an unbiased press and impartial gatekeepers.
That’s why the Attorney General’s decision, after a hearing, to indict a sitting Prime Minister in three cases of fraud and breach of trust was so deeply shocking. It made me realize that I, too, had been deceived by Netanyahu’s lies over the years.
His indictment only reinforced his distorted belief that “I am the state” and that Bibi would fight the state. As his wife once expressed, if need be, “let the state burn.”
He works incessantly to destroy Israeli democracy—legislating to weaken the independence of the Supreme Court and, since the war broke out, overturning long-standing norms: appointing judges who suit the Justice Minister’s preferences, using a politicized police force to suppress protesters, bereaved families, and hostages’ relatives, demanding personal loyalty from new gatekeepers, and continuously attacking the Attorney General.
All of this is done while operating a well-oiled poison machine that relentlessly targets those who fight to preserve the rule of law and the civilian organizations active since the war’s outbreak.
A well-oiled poison machine
Netanyahu and his government ignore the suffering of the residents near Gaza, who have been abandoned and murdered, and the families of the hostages while spreading venom against anyone with differing opinions.
Netanyahu has been betraying and destroying the country for years, both in terms of security and the economy.
