| Israeli president pleads guilty to sex offences |
| 2007-06-29 |
| Israeli President Moshe Katsav pleaded guilty on Thursday to committing sexual crimes against women employees in a plea bargain that will keep him out of jail, Israel’s attorney-general said. Under the deal, Attorney-General Menachem Mazuz retreated from his stated intention to charge Katsav with rape but said the president, whose term expires next month, would resign and that “shame will accompany him forever”. |

| #1 Good for Israel! They've shown more courage than we had in dealing with the lying, dope-smoking, draft-dodging, philandering rapist we had as President. |
