<\/a>Israel\u2019s Attorney General Calls to Cancel Netanyahu\u2019s Mossad Chief Appointment<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/h3>\ni24 News<\/strong> and<\/em> <\/span>Algemeiner Staff<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara told the High Court of Justice on Sunday that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu\u2019s decision to appoint Maj. Gen. Roman Gofman as the next Mossad chief must be canceled.<\/span><\/p>\n Baharav-Miara filed her position ahead of a Tuesday hearing on petitions challenging the appointment, telling the court that \u201csubstantial flaws\u201d had been found both in the process conducted by the advisory committee and in the conclusions it drew. She said Netanyahu\u2019s decision suffered from \u201cextreme and blatant unreasonableness\u201d and could not stand legally.<\/span><\/p>\n At the center of the dispute is the case of Ori Elmakayes, who was a 17-year-old minor when he was activated in 2022 by Division 210, without going through authorized intelligence channels. At the time, the division was commanded by Gofman. Elmakayes was arrested in May 2022 under espionage charges after two officers sent him classified information and told him to post it online as part of an \u201cinfluence campaign,\u201d despite not being authorized to do so. Gofman initiated this operation. Elmakayes was then held in full detention until July, spending an extended period under electronic monitoring and house arrest before the indictment against him was canceled in late 2023.<\/span><\/p>\n Baharav-Miara says Gofman\u2019s involvement in leaking the classified information to the minor, \u201ccasts a heavy shadow on Gofman\u2019s integrity and thus on his appointment to head the Mossad.\u201d The attorney general also identified serious procedural failings in the advisory committee\u2019s work. She notes that the majority members signed their opinion before committee chairman and former Supreme Court president Asher Grunis had written his dissent and before two members had reviewed several classified documents significant to the full picture. Grunis concluded that integrity flaws had been found and that it was not appropriate to appoint Gofman as Mossad chief.<\/span><\/p>\n The attorney general also says the committee failed to hear directly from Elmakayes or from a relevant senior military intelligence officer, instead relying in part on media interviews.<\/span><\/p>\n Netanyahu,\u00a0who appointed Gofman to head the Mossad<\/a>\u00a0starting in early June, for a five-year term, submitted his own response to the court on this past Friday, arguing that the decision fell within his executive authority. The Prime Minister also said that his assessment of the matter was \u201cdozens of times superior\u201d to that of the court, adding that Gofman\u2019s integrity was \u201cfound pure,\u201d and describing him as the most qualified candidate.<\/span><\/p>\n Other coalition figures responded to the attorney general with sharp criticism, including National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir. Ben-Gvir accused Baharav-Miara of fighting the state, while Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich said her position was \u201cone step too far\u201d and vowed to advance legislation splitting the attorney general\u2019s role in the Knesset\u2019s summer session.<\/span><\/p>\n Zawarto\u015b\u0107 publikowanych artyku\u0142\u00f3w i materia\u0142\u00f3w nie reprezentuje pogl\u0105d\u00f3w ani opinii Reunion’68,<\/em> Israel\u2019s Attorney General Calls to Cancel Netanyahu\u2019s Mossad Chief Appointment i24 News and Algemeiner Staff Israeli Attorney-General Gali Baharav-Miara.
