The proposal for the so-called recommendations law preventing Israel's police from recommending indictment and the ongoing police investigations into Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and other Likud party seniors have raised public indignation in recent days and generated protests. The chairman of Kulanu, Finance Minister Moshe Kahlon, is sure to closely follow the demonstration against government corruption scheduled for Dec. 9 in Tel Aviv's Rabin Square.
Kahlon has reason to worry about this demonstration. Ironically, it is Kahlon who is paying a price at the polls for the proposed recommendations law, which was advanced by the Likud to help Netanyahu survive public scrutiny over the criminal investigations and is now on hold.
