Israeli journalist Margalit exposes Rabin bank scandal tied to Watergate
Washington based Israeli Haaretz correspondent Dan Margalit says the Rabin case shows laws apply to all as he details an illegal National Bank of Washington account linked to Leah Rabin. He deposited $50 as Mrs Leah Rabin and saw Rabin withdraw about $8,000, with total funds peaking at $18,000. Margalit predicts possible prosecutions for Mrs Rabin and possibly Rabin himself depending on knowledge. In Israel, Shimon Peres is chosen as Labor party leader and potential prime minister for the May 17 election, with Allon stepping aside and a revised cabinet path outlined.
