The comptroller of the Likud party on Wednesday afternoon issued a non-binding ruling prohibiting Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu from running in the party’s primaries on 9 Teves 5775. Attorney Shai Galili released the ruling which is tied to alleged misuse of party funds by Mr. Netanyahu.
According to allegations, the prime minister used party resources and funds to advance his position in the party leadership race.
Since the decision is non-binding, an appeal from the prime minister can be expected.

Your headline is VERY MISLEADING and VERY UNTRUE!
Non binding means exactly that…
NON BINDING.
Hi mark
The way I under stand this, is that he is indeed banned , but it is appealable. If his appeal fails then the ban remains in effect.
Feivel
Analogous to someone who is found guilty of a crime, where the verdict is subject to appeal. We consider this a true verdict.
Thank you Mark Levin!!! So frustrating to see feeble attempts at shock journalism.
So what’s the point of the whole thing if he’s being the next Likud representative anyway?
