The article meets |general notability guidelines. There is "Significant coverage" addressing the topic directly and in detail.  Such coverage was found in several leading newspapers.  It is claimed by one of the nominators that the articles are not independent, which essentially amounts to a claim of plagiarism against the Haaretz newspaper.  I don't think such claims have been established and it seems frivolous to base an AfD on such claims.  The case is clearly precedent-setting.  I am not familiar with another case where a penalty of close to a million dollars was imposed for verbal abuse.  The case is currently under appeal and will likely lead to further media coverage, but in any case the existing coverage is sufficient to meet the GNG guidelines
