      Talansky Faces Cross-Examination Thursday


      Lawyers for Prime Minister Ehud Olmert and his aide Shula Zaken plant to grill American businessman Morris Talansky in cross-examination Thursday. Talansky testified last month, divulging that he transferred $150,000 in cash through couriers to the Prime Minister over a period of several years.

      The aged businessman said he will not break under the pressure from lawyers, who will try to prove that he changed his version of events in order to implicate Prime Minister Olmert.
