https://www.independent.co.uk/news/worl ... 05811.htmlIsrael’s attorney general has officially indicted prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu after the embattled leader dropped a last-ditch attempt to secure immunity from prosecution in three corruption cases.
The dramatic development comes as Mr Netanyahu is in Washington for the launch of Donald Trump’s long-awaited Middle East peace plan, which according to leaks in the Israeli media is expected to be the most pro-Israeli American peace proposal yet.
The decision to file the indictment against the premier paves the way for a trial to continue, right before Israel is due to go to elections on 2 March.

I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.
