Netanyahu thanks Trump after president calls for corruption trial to end

Trump earlier said in a post that after the United States saved Israel, it was now going to save Netanyahu from what he called "a witchhunt."

“I was shocked to hear that the State of Is

rael, which has just had one of its Greatest Moments in History, and is strongly led by Bibi Netanyahu, is continuing its ridiculous Witch Hunt against their Great War Time Prime Minister!” using the Israeli leader’s nickname.

“I just learned that Bibi has been summoned to Court on Monday for the continuation of this long running, (He has been going through this ‘Horror Show’ since May of 2020 – Unheard of! This is the first time a sitting Israeli Prime Minister has ever been on trial).”

“He deserves much better than this, and so does the State of Israel… It was the United States of America that saved Israel, and now it is going to be the United States of America that saves Bibi Netanyahu,” Trump wrote.

Haddad asked for an urgent hearing to determine the future of Netanyahu's testimony and said the state would align with any instruction from the court.

The courts are schedule to begin their summer hiatus on July 21, which will last until September 5, during which time Netanyahu would not be required to testify in the prosecutions' cross examination, unless the judges panel at the Jerusalem District Court decides to hold sessions, during the break, to speed up the proceedings.
