Is Israeli Prime Minister a Crook?

Olmert has allegedly accepted nearly $500,000 in bribes and illegal campaign contributions during the 2006 elections. Foreign Minister Tzipi Livini is now a likely successor to Mr. Olmert, and its also implied that the Kamida Party may suffer upcoming elections. Livni also calls for a party primary to allow the public to have a say in choosing a leader and to "restore the trust". So there hasn't been much development since my last post, but the job of Israeli Prime Minister is almost certainly going to be up for grabs. Another development though, is that Mr. Talansky, a US businessman, told investigators that he gave Mr. Olmert envelopes full of cash. He claims that he gave over $150,000 of his own money to Mr. Olmert through aides and directly over a span of 15 years. Good for you, he also claims he walked to a bank to withdraw $15,000 in cash for a loan as Mr. Olmert waited in a luxury hotel. He's pissed now and making these claims because Mr. Olmert never repaid a single loan..hhahahaha. Let me know your thoughts.
