On the same day that the ICC carried out a travesty of justice by issuing arrest warrants to Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and former defense minister Yoav Gallant for committing “war crimes,” the leftist judicial system in Israel carried out a travesty of justice by indicting Eli Feldstein and a second suspect, a Chareidi noncommissioned IDF officer, with extremely serious charges that can carry a punishment of up to life in prison. The final decision was made by Attorney-General Gali Baharav-Miara, who decided to indict Feldstein for transferring classified information with intent to harm state security and obstruct judicial proceedings. A second suspect who hasn’t been named was also charged with serious offenses related to state security. Additionally, the prosecution will request that the court detain both suspects until the conclusion of legal proceedings, which could take several years. Feldstein was accused of leaking a classified document from the IDF to the Bild German newspaper. However, the “classified” information he leaked was that the leftist protests against Netanyahu and the government harm the chance for a hostage deal, information that is true and has been confirmed by Shin Bet head Ronen Bar. The question is why was the IDF hiding that information from Netanyahu? And how did Feldstein harm Israel by leaking the information? An even more pressing question is why the State Prosecutor’s Office chose to focus so much time and effort on this leak when hundreds of other leaks have been ignored. Earlier on Thursday, starting from the late morning hours, thousands gathered to protest outside the courtroom in Tel Aviv, where the hearing regarding Feldstein and the officer was held. Likud ministers Shlomo Karhi and Amichai Shikli participated in the demonstration and even spoke there. Karhi spoke alongside the wife of the officer who was later indicted, saying: “I want to ask the honorable court one simple question. If the officer you are discussing today had transmitted information to the prime minister on the night of Simchat Torah when none of the intelligence agencies did so and had saved the people of Israel from the terrible massacre, wouldn’t you have awarded him a commendation?” He concluded his remarks with a sharp statement against the trial: “Last Shabbat, we read about the laws of Sodom, where they adopted distorted values of justice and morality. I call on you not to judge those who showed responsibility for Israel’s security according to the laws of Sodom!” Diaspora Minister Amichai Shikli said, “Complete politicization of a disturbed and irresponsible judicial system. This is a travesty that cries out to the heavens. Where is the Association for Civil Rights?” Channel 12 News reporter Yaron Avraham wrote:  “I truly hope for the prosecution’s sake that this incident is backed by solid evidence, because on the surface it smells bad.” Yisrael Hayom reporter Amir Ettinger wrote: “The prosecution accuses Feldstein of leaking a secret with the intent to harm state security, a charge that carries a maximum penalty of life imprisonment. In my humble opinion, it’s hard to understand the prosecution’s exaggeration.” Army Radio reporter Yuval Shegev briefly expressed his opinion in a post he published on his ‘X’ account: “Wild exaggeration.” Binyamin Ashkenazi from Walla wrote: “I think the prosecution is climbing a super tall tree by accusing Feldstein of leaking a secret […]
