Additionally, things are not going well for Benjamin Netanyahu. He has been unable to form a government due to his insistence of having all religious students in Israel serve in the defense forces.

Nader later agreed to cooperate with Mueller’s investigation, said the people with knowledge of the case as it pertains to Nader. They weren’t authorized to speak publicly on the case and demanded anonymity....
