    Eye Opening documentary

    Beyond the explicit corruption charges, "The Bibi Files" suggests a more sinister undercurrent: that Netanyahu's relentless pursuit to evade justice has deeply impacted Israel's political landscape and even its security. The documentary posits that his efforts to avoid prosecution influenced his political decisions, including his attempts to weaken the judiciary, which sparked massive protests across Israel. It even implies a connection between his legal entanglements and his approach to the ongoing conflict in Gaza, suggesting that prolonging the war could serve as a means to delay his trial and maintain power.

    What makes "The Bibi Files" particularly impactful is its use of raw, unvarnished interrogation footage. This direct access to the private world of the Netanyahus, usually hidden behind carefully constructed public images, is both voyeuristic and deeply revealing. It provides a chilling insight into the mentality of a leader and his inner circle, whose sense of entitlement seemingly knows no bounds. The film's meticulous organization of this vast amount of footage into a coherent timeline is commendable, allowing the viewer to follow the complex legal and political threads.

    Portrait of a sick psychopath

    Just watched this. What can I say, if you want something enjoyable, don't watch. If on the other hand you want to understand what's happening in Gaza and why it's happening, this documentary is a must watch. It has leaked scenes of never before seen footage, showing credible evidence of people who were really close to him. Poor Bibi can only respond in one or two ways: I don't remember or lies! This man, together with other war criminals should be behind bars for the rest of his live. But he still had friends in the US who got his back. It makes you wonder why.. go watch it, it's a must see! May peace return to our planet!

    Just like the Panama Papers

    It shows there is definitely two levels of society the accountable (us) and them!! How many years ago did the Panama Papers expose wide spread money laundering? How long was Syria producing high scale opioid's with full immunity. The world needs to change for the better greed is not the way forward. If what is happening in the middle east is the legacy we are leaving our kids globally as this affects us all I am ashamed when my generation were 'going to change the world' yeah right. Once the hippies hit the corporate world greed set in and pasts forgotten, try buying a beach shack and opting out? I see my generation walking around in their 'designer hippy clothes' and enough bling to feed a small country for a year. Then, they jump in their Porsche and drive away hypocrites and totally shallow role models.

    A Thorough and Revealing Documentary

    The Bibi Files is a bold and meticulously crafted documentary that shines a light on some of the most controversial aspects of Benjamin Netanyahu's tenure as Prime Minister of Israel. Far from being vague or unfounded, the documentary offers a compelling narrative supported by diverse sources and insights that challenge the status quo.

    The strength of The Bibi Files lies in its ability to weave together personal testimonies, political analysis, and historical context to create a multifaceted portrait of one of Israel's most polarizing figures. The individuals interviewed may not all be high profile or immediately recognizable, but their perspectives offer a ground-level view of the social, economic, and political ripple effects of Netanyahu's policies. This approach underscores the documentary's commitment to amplifying voices that are often overshadowed in mainstream discourse.

    Critics may dismiss the film as biased, but such an assertion overlooks its clear focus on presenting evidence and arguments that spark critical thought. The filmmakers challenge viewers to connect the dots themselves, fostering a more engaged and questioning audience. While it does not adopt the rigid investigative style of something like Gold Mafia, its approach is no less valid - offering a more humanized and relatable exploration of its subject.

    The timing of the documentary is also poignant, coinciding with a pivotal moment in Israel's political landscape. This synchronicity amplifies the relevance of its message and provides a vital lens for understanding current events.

    Very good doc - sad state of affairs

    Eye-opening documentary shedding light not just on Netanyahu but also on the background to the tragic events in Gaza and some deeply disturbing elements of Israeli society.

    Unlike what some have written here, the documentary is not based on hearsay, but on police interviews with the involved parties and the movie makers' interviews with some key characters connected to the upper echelons of Israeli society.

    So the sources are primary, and this lends credence to the accusations against Netanyahu being put forward, but, more importantly, paints a picture of some of the motivations behind Netanyahu's and wider Israeli society's gruesome treatment of Gaza.

    Spend 1½ hours to better understand contemporary Israel and the events in Gaza. The editing and storytelling will keep you interested, and enlightening films such as this one can play an important role in putting an end to catastrophes such as the one unfolding in the Middle East right now.

      Self - Childhood Friend: Bibi told me one day, that Yair can replace him. My eyebrows went up, "Yair can replace you? First of all, you can't appoint your son. Why can he be considered?" He said, "Well, he has the capability." He really thinks that it's like a kingdom.
