(IsraelNN.com) According to Channel 2 television, Jewish activists in the United States and Israel have offered a large cash prize to anyone willing to offer information leading to the resignation of Prime Minister Ehud Olmert.  The station published a transcription that allegedly details a conversation between a private investigator hired by activists and a private businessman.

In the transcribed conversation the investigator asks the businessmen if he has any evidence that could incriminate Olmert in wrongdoing, and explains that there is a “jackpot” involved.  If the businessman can prove that Olmert was involved in illegal activity such as taking a bribe, he could get one million US dollars, the investigator says.
