Two thirds (66 percent) of Israelis believe Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu should resign if indicted for corruption, and just over half (51%) say they don’t believe his protestations of innocence, according to a poll. 
According to a Channel 10 news survey of 751 respondents, the governing Likud would come out ahead of the other political parties in a general election — with or without Netanyahu at the helm, The Times of Israel reported on Monday. 
Former Likud minister Gideon Sa’ar was best poised to be elected to the premiership if Netanyahu was out of the running, the poll said.
According to the poll, 66% say Netanyahu should step down if indicted, while 21% say he shouldn’t quit, and 13% are undecided. Asked if they believed the prime minister’s assertion that he is innocent of all the allegations against him, 51% said no, 27% said yes, and 22% said they didn’t know.
The survey came two days after Ari Harow, a former key associate of the prime minister, signed a deal to turn state’s witness, and a day after police explicitly said for the first time that the investigations of Netanyahu revolve around suspicions of “bribery, fraud and breach of trust”.
