NEW CHARGES LEVELED AT OLMERT


Corruption charge 1,000,000 looks to be filed:
(IsraelNN.com) Acting Prime Minister Ehud Olmert has been implicated in a new corruption scandal. A report put out Monday by State Comptroller Micha Lindenstrauss accuses Olmert of using his political pull to get an irregular loan approved.

Olmert pressured then Treasury Accountant-General Yaron Zehalka to approve a loan for the Jerusalem Engineering College, Lindenstrauss found. The alleged incident took place while Olmert served as Finance Minister.
I hope that a new government will be formed soon, so that then, he'll really have to step down and face them.
