Addressing the 10th Jerusalem Conference on Monday, 25 Teves 5773, Likud MK hopeful Moshe Feiglin opted to address corruption in the Israeli judicial system, referring to the moral corruption that prevails. He stressed that the general public has lost its faith in the nation’s judicial system a long time ago, citing today, the judges have too much power, wielding an authority “that was never given to them.”
He used the announcement made this week by Attorney General Yehuda Weinstein to launch an investigation against Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, citing that it is not coincidence that this takes place two weeks before elections.
He feels the nation’s High Court of Justice views itself as above criticism, an elite body about scrutiny, pointing out the High Court’s agenda is greatly assisted by the mainstream media.

Feiglin has always been an honest, sharp, idealistic person with a large degree of yirat shaimayim. I hope he is able to get a sear in the next Knesset.
Yes, I agree – Moshe Feiglin is a wonderful person & will get a seat in Kenneset. More importantly, hopefully that will help him segway to the head of Likud & the PM position next election. He’s probably the only one in Israeli politics who I trust. There are other decent people out there but Feiglin is the one who truly respects chiloni, mesorati, dati, chareidi and Diaspora Jews. He understands the true meaning of the unity of the Jewish people instead of just representing one sector.
