Netanyahu Wants a Never-Go-to-Jail Card

Presidential pardons are in fashion in the United States, even for people who haven't yet been found guilty of a crime. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is a well-known Americanophile.

On Sunday, his lawyers submitted his request, stressing that freeing Netanyahu from his marathon corruption trial would be purely for the public good.
