Show Notes
Note: this podcast was recorded on December 29, 2020. Since the time of the recording, there have been several developments related to Prime Minister Netanyahu’s trial; most pertinently, his trial for corruption charges was delayed until February 8 because of the imposition of a third national COVID-19 lockdown, after an announcement in early January that the trial would be suspended “indefinitely.” More information can be found here: https://www.jpost.com/breaking-news/pm-netanyahus-hearing-rescheduled-for-february-8-655006, https://www.timesofisrael.com/court-delays-netanyahus-2nd-appearance-in-court-for-his-trial-citing-lockdown/, and https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/.premium-court-postpones-next-hearing-in-netanyahu-s-corruption-trial-citing-covid-lockdown-1.9434724
