Netanyahu OK’d Sub Sale to Egypt to Get Discount from Germany

By Staff, Agencies

A witness in a corruption case involving associates of Zionist Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu gave police testimony contradicting his statement earlier this year that there was a classified reason for him authorizing the sale of several advanced submarines to Egypt without updating the war minister and chief of staff, a report said Tuesday.

Relatively, police believe ‘Israeli’ officials were bribed to push a massive deal to buy military vessels from Germany worth hundreds of millions of dollars, in what some have called the largest suspected graft scandal in the occupation entity’s history. The case has ensnared several associates of Netanyahu, though not him, who is already facing corruption charges, pending a hearing, in three other cases.

In March, during a rare and contentious interview with Channel 12 news, Netanyahu said only a select few officials were briefed in real time about the reason for the Zionist entity not objecting to Germany’s 2014 and 2015 submarine deal with Egypt, citing a secret security concern and adding that “whoever needed to know, knew.”

Though Germany does not need ‘Israeli’ permission to sell the advanced submarines to other countries, it has shown occupied al-Quds that courtesy in order to maintain the occupation entity’s qualitative edge in the region.

However, Miki Ganor, a former witness in the case who has since recanted some parts of his testimony, told police that the real reason Netanyahu hadn’t updated his top officials was a massive discount offered by Germany on the sale of submarines to ‘Israel’ on the condition that al-Quds approved the deal with Egypt, Channel 13 reported Tuesday.
