Likud MK Supports Pension for Fugitive Arab MK 26 Tammuz 5768, 29 July 08 01:49 by Hana Levi Julian

(IsraelNN.com) Likud Knesset Member Reuven Rivlin, a nationalist who fought the 2005 Disengagement from Gaza, is backing pension payments to former Israeli Arab Knesset Member Azmi Bishara, who fled the country to avoid facing charges of treason.

Bishara allegedly received several hundred thousand dollars from Hizbullah in exchange for delivering intelligence information during the 2006 Second Lebanon War. He was also in touch with intelligence agents from other unnamed countries.

The former Arab Balad party MK was to be charged with aiding the enemy in wartime, transmitting information to the enemy, contacting a foreign agent and money laundering.

MK Rivlin argued that Bishara is innocent until proven guilty and that revoking the pensions payments would "harm the foundations of democracy in the deeper sense of the word." Legislators have introduced bills calling for the revocation of monthly payments to Bishara, who fled to Qatar.



For all those people that seem to love the Likud and think it is a conservative political party, see the true face iof the Likud.

They all from Bibi on down talk a good game but when it comes to man up and really rule as a conservative they fail most of the time.

Israel need not spend time worrying about this traitors pension, they need to plan on how to kill this traitor.

Israel is at war and during war traitors pay for their treachery will their lives.
