If you're not aware of this, you should probably catch up on it: Israel's version of the Mueller investigation is racing towards a finale, Netanyahu might be indicted within the next few months, and he delivered a bizarre address to the nation tonight where he challenged his accusers to a reality TV style confrontation.

It makes sense, facts are irrelevant in a TV debate. If he goes out and spews a bunch of bullshit with confidence then he walks away with free public support.

So basically he's gonna yell over everyone's evidence and then dodge roll out of the debate before people see through his "corruption is okay" message?

The court of public opinion is one of kangaroos.
