Shin-Bet
incriminates
the
Central Election Committee in serious computer fraud - and where
have
the Supreme Court justices been
all
along?
Two
consecutive
State Ombudsman’s
reports
found that the Central
Election Committee’s
IT systems had no valid entry logs, and no valid supervision
of entries to the system. Moreover, such serious
failure was not corrected following the 2013
General Election report.
Publications in the US and in Israel claim material computer fraud
in the 2015 General
Election.
Therefor,
FOIA request was filed on the Central Election Committee (possibly
the first ever), which sought documentation of specification,
development, validation, operation and security of the Committee’s
IT systems as required by law and by binding standards.
The
Committee’s response, naming three senior attorneys, is perceived
as fraud. In particular – its part, which says that the systems
were examined and certified by the Shin-Bet (Re’em). Therefore,
formal inquiry was made with Shin-Bet Head Nadav Argaman, to affirm
or deny the Shin-Bet’s responsibility for the systems. The
Shin-Bet’s response, which was received from the Prime Minister’s
office, denied that the Shin-Bet (Re’em) examined and certified the
Central Election Committee’s systems.
One
is hard pressed to find a plausible explanation, except for serious
fraud, for conduct of the three Committee’s office holding
attorneys: Orly Adas – CEO, Elad Naveh – FOIA Officer, and Dean
Livneh – Legal Advisor. Another state employee – Operations
Manager Lazar Dudovich – is suspected as key figure in computer
fraud in the Committee.
Computer
fraud in the Central Election Committee pertains to the foundation of
lawful regime, from appointment of the Chief of Staff, through
control of the Treasury, lawful authority of the current Knesset and
the current executive cabinet, to judicial appointments.
In
view of severity of the matter, the series of Supreme Court justices,
who served as Chairs of the Committee during the relevant period,
should be deemed incompetent, corrupt and/or breaching loyalty.
However,
the Supreme Court justices also routinely engage in similar conduct
in IT systems of the Supreme Court itself, and senior judicial
officers oversaw the development, implementation and operation of
Net-HaMishpat – the new, fraudulent IT system of the district and
magistrate courts. The Shin-Bet itself, in response on inquiry with
previous Shin Bet Head Yoram Cohen stated that the Shin-Bet was not
charged with security of IT systems of the courts… And
Administration of the Courts, like the Central Election Committee,
refuses to answer on FOIA request and disclose who was charged with
their IT system security.
The
case at hand is of particular interest, since it presents role
reversals – Shin-Bet is acting to protect the Rule of Law and
sounding an alarm regarding serious violations of the law by
attorneys, the judiciary and others, which undermine the lawfulness
of the regime. Such class breach of loyalty should surely be deemed
“Treason”, according to Judge David Rosen…
The
role reversals, or dispute between two such powerful groups in the
Israeli regime – the secret security apparatus and the justice
system – may be related to establishment of the “National Cyber
Authority” and “National Cyber Council” by PM Netanyahu’,
which undermined the Shin-Bet’s powers and authority. Netanyahu’s
authority to implement such changes, and authority of those, who are
now charged with security of vital state IT systems, is claimed to be
ill-defined by law.
It
is obvious that the law enforcement system would not duly investigate
the plethora of serious violations of the law, which arise from such
circumstances, even in their narrower scope – the alleged fraud by
the Central Election Committee in administration of the 2015 General
Election. It is doubly clear that no one would be held accountable,
even if they should be. Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit, even
more than his predecessor Yehuda Weinstein, routinely covers up
criminality by senior state officers, particularly in the law
enforcement and justice systems.
Iin
short: A constitutional crisis in a nation with no constitution…
In
view of the circumstances, the public should demand interim, focal
corrective measures prior to the next general election: a) Paper
administration of the general election, b) Invitation of professional
international observers.
