Hagi Ben-Artzi, brother of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's wife Sara, blasted Attorney-General Avichai Mandelblit on Thursday for his decision to announce a possible indictment against Netanyahu in the ongoing bribery case."I am angry at Mandelblit," he stated. "Why publish it a month before the election? I expected him to make a different decision, but apparently he could not withstand the pressure. He, too, is just a human being."Ben-Artzi's defense of Netanyahu was considered surprising, because he is a frequent critic of his brother-in-law, who often attacks him from the Right.Ben-Artzi is a lecturer of Bible and Jewish history at Bar-Ilan University and has produced a documentary about historical Jewish sites in the West Bank.
