B"H ... is that the court system gets bypassed. Media leaks bypass the court system. If Katsav resigns improperly, he exposes Israel to this media rule of government. He also exposes the Jews to the same system. Folks, it is not the Jews that control the media, but rather the Arabs and other nations. Why is this bad? Because newspapers are PAID to run advertisements. That means if you have rich neighbors, they can buy your government if it is all through the press and the press is irresponsibile. So what is the interest of the press here? The neighbors who make these accusations have no interest in free press. The press needs to institute more careful protection of itself, because those around it are looking to shut it down altogether. The lack of detailed investigative journalism is just playing into the hands of those who wish to shut down freedom of speech. I recommend more articles promoting a full investigation to conclusion before Katsav is PERMITTED to resign in the interests of the Jewish people. This is because he is not just representing himself in his position. We cannot have trial by accusation and maintain our freedom. We need full answers and a full inquiry. This is essential. To say Israel is just a fifth column is also not acceptable. Israel is positioned by the world media as the prototype Jew. What impacts you there impacts us here because of our local media use of scandals which is of course fully sanctioned by governments that want to paint Jews and Israel in a bad light. YNET, this is your time to shine even more than ever and you are needed here. Step up to the plate before it is too late.

katzav may be guilty but why the rush to judgment?.why are we happy for downfall of our kind??reminder, god is angry at us because we forgot to be jews and became like amalek.if he did it for sure he should be punished , but wait until then.israel has horibale leaders the past few years who were worse than arafat. let me name few: shimon peres, olmert, yosi beilin, mofaz, halutz, and arabs in the goverment.this goverment should resign soon with no delay.god help us we have foolish leader."KHATANU.....AVINU... PASHENU"".

After all those investigations the out put is 4 count of rape, I mean the serious ones. And 3 are related to the same person A and one related to a woman back in time when she worked for him in a ministery.If i am readding well and not wrong, i think that those so called act occured back in time, let's say months, maybe years etc.What I know from the sensitive woman who are really raped, they go next day, may in 3 days if they have to go see a doctor or therapist to press charges. Also i think every one will agree with me that when a woman is raped once it won't allowed to be the second and third time. So why Ms A. let be 3 time, and why the other lady waited month maybe years to report this incident? it doesn't make a sens to me.Now what are the martial stats of the two ladys, any husbands, Bf, lovers, a little of their history in the media would be just justice that if we allow a high rank to be convicted in the press before any court of law why not some of their personal stories. wouldn't be fear enough

come out and say the same thing. Katsav, not the media, is the problem here.
