Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Trump Calls for Netanyahu Pardon in Israel
Caption: Trump Calls for Netanyahu Pardon in Israel. U.S. President Trump urged Israeli President Herzog to pardon Prime Minister Netanyahu during a Knesset speech. Netanyahu faces charges of bribery, fraud, and breach of trust over lavish gifts and political favors. Trump’s public appeal came during a visit to Israel marking the end of the Gaza war and the return of Israeli hostages. The pardon call drew cheers from Netanyahu’s allies but criticism across Israel’s political spectrum. Experts warn a guilt-free pardon breaks Israeli law and may be blocked by the Supreme Court. Critics argue Trump’s intervention threatens Israel’s judicial independence and could deepen political polarization. Over 140 witnesses, including Netanyahu’s former associates, have testified in the corruption cases. Instructions: THIS VIDEO MUST NOT BE EDITED FOR LENGTH TO COMBINE WITH OTHER CONTENT
