Fact: Likud campaign website had video that Yigal Amir supported Bayit
Yehudi

Dr. Aaron Lerner Date: 26 January 2013

These are the facts:

#1. The Likud – Yisrael Beiteinu list had a YouTube channel for its campaign
videos:

http://www.youtube.com/user/halikudisraelbeytenu?feature=watch

#2. Uploading or deleting a video on the channel required accessing the
channel with a password.

#3. On Saturday night, 20 January, several days before the elections, the
channel included two professional quality videos based on a takeoff on the
Wheel of Fortune. These two videos used the same layout, graphics, sounds
and announcer. To be clear: these were on the YouTube channel of the
Likud – Yisrael Beiteinu list and not some kind of sophisticated fake
channel with a slightly different spelling of the URL.

#4. One of the two videos said that Livni was going to divide Jerusalem.
The second video noted that Yigal Amir (who murdered PM Rabin) had asked his
family to vote for Bayit Yehudi.

#5. On Sunday 21 January, the video that Yigal Amir asked his family to vote
for Bayit Yehudi no longer appeared on the channel but the video that Livni
was going to divide Jerusalem remained on the channel.

#6. On Monday, 22 January, the video that Livni was going to divide
Jerusalem no longer appeared on the channel.
