Israeli Opposition Demands Treason Probe Against Netanyahu Over Iran War Plans

Israeli opposition leader Avigdor Liberman has called for a criminal investigation into Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on suspicion of treason. Liberman accused Netanyahu of attempting to drag Israel into a war with Iran to avoid defeat in the upcoming elections. He alleged that Netanyahu had pressured security chiefs to take actions that could lead to a miscalculation with Iran. Liberman submitted a request to the Attorney General, stating that Netanyahu's actions constitute 'treason against the state, its security, and the soldiers of the Israel Defense Forces.'
