question:
What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Emmerson Mnangagwa ? (CNN) The elevation of Emmerson Mnangagwa to the presidency of Zimbabwe would amount to an act of political survival matched only by the man he'd replace  Robert Mugabe.
Until Mugabe fired him as Vice President last week   Mnangagwa 's entire political career had been hitched to Zimbabwe's 93-year-old leader.
Now  with the military in control in Harare and Mugabe confined to his residency   Mnangagwa  is believed to be at the center of moves to install  himself  at the head of a transitional government.
This wouldn't be the first time  Mnangagwa  has been in line to lead Zimbabwe
They also hint at  Mnangagwa 's dark past. In late 2000  a cable written by Earl Irving   then a US diplomat in Harare  described  Mnangagwa  as "widely feared and despised throughout the country " warning  he  could be "an even more repressive leader" than Mugabe if  he  were to succeed  him .
Fear of  Mnangagwa  stems from  his  position as Mugabe's enforcer and head of the Central Intelligence Organization (CIO)  or secret police  and  his  alleged role in the 1983-84 massacres of the Ndebele ethnic group in Matabeleland  a region in Zimbabwe's southwest that was a center of political opposition to Mugabe's regime.
Mnangagwa's elevation without an election would be viewed with suspicion abroad. Kate Hoey  a British Labour MP who has campaigned for years to highlight oppression under the Mugabe regime  described  Mnangagwa 's in a parliamentary debate as "probably the one person in Zimbabwe who inspires even greater terror than Mugabe."
Nicknamed the "crocodile" on account of his political longevity and survival skills   Mnangagwa  has for years been thought to be biding  his  time  ready to takeover from Mugabe when the nonagenarian finally stepped aside  or died.
 His  impeccable revolutionary credentials  coupled with  his  strong support among key parts of Zimbabwe's elite -- specifically within the military and security services -- singled  him  out as an obvious  and non-controversial  successor.
But this was to dramatically change earlier last week  when Mugabe sacked  Mnangagwa  in a move seen as shoring up the power of  his  wife and chosen successor  Grace Mugabe.
A statement from the country's information ministry accused  Mnangagwa  of "disloyalty  disrespect  deceitfulness and unreliability " sending  him  into hiding amid reports  he  was attempting to build a coalition to take on Grace Mugabe in the next election.
"One after the other  (Mugabe's) vice presidents and people around  him  were estranged by Grace Mugabe " said Geoff Hill  author of "What happens after Mugabe?".

Negative


question:
What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Benjamin Netanyahu ?

(Tsafrir Abayov/Associated Press)
JERUSALEM â  Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu  is fighting for  his  political life as a dizzying array of scandals has engulfed  him    his  family and  his  inner circle.
Police last week announced they have sufficient evidence to indict  Netanyahu  for bribery  fraud and breach of trust in two separate cases. And this week  a new case emerged that threatens to be the most damaging of all  after one of his closest confidants agreed to testify against him in an influence-peddling scandal.
 Netanyahu  and  his  wife  Sara  have long been saddled with a penchant for expensive tastes and questionable use of public funds.  Netanyahu  has denied all wrongdoing and accuses the media of orchestrating a campaign aimed at ousting him from office.
But with those closest to him under intense police and public scrutiny  and his typically loyal political allies suddenly turning silent   Netanyahu  faces the stiffest challenge yet to  his  lengthy rule.
Police have recommended indicting  Netanyahu  over accepting nearly $300 000 in gifts from Hollywood mogul Arnon Milchan and Australian billionaire James Packer. Police say that in return for lavish gifts that included jewelry  expensive cigars and champagne   Netanyahu  had operated on Milchanâs behalf on U.S. visa matters  tried to legislate a generous tax break for  him  and sought to promote  his  interests in the Israeli media market.
Police have not commented on what Packer may have received  and  Netanyahu  has said everything  he  received were gifts from friends. Attorney General Avihai Mandelblit  a  Netanyahu  appointee  will make the final decision on whether to file charges â a process that is expected to take several months.
Police have also recommended indicting  Netanyahu  for supposedly offering a newspaper publisher legislation that would weaken  his  paperâs main rival in return for more favorable coverage.  Netanyahu  reportedly was recorded asking Arnon Mozes  the publisher of the Yediot Ahronot daily  for positive coverage in exchange for helping to weaken Israel Hayom  a free pro-Netanyahu newspaper that had cut into Yediotâs business.
Israel Hayom is financed by  Netanyahuâs  American billionaire friend Sheldon Adelson and largely serves as the prime ministerâs mouthpiece.  Netanyahu  has noted that a proposed law to weaken Israel Hayom never passed  and this week said  he  had even dissolved  his  coalition and called a new election in 2015 because of  his  opposition to the proposal.  The attorney general  will have to rule on this case as well.
This week two close  Netanyahu  confidants were arrested on suspicion of promoting regulation worth hundreds of millions of dollars to Israelâs Bezeq telecom company. In return  Bezeqâs popular news site  Walla  allegedly provided favorable coverage of  Netanyahu  and  his  family. Nir Hefetz  a former  Netanyahu  family spokesman  and Shlomo Filber  the former director of the Communications Ministry under  Netanyahu   are in custody as well as Bezeqâs controlling shareholder Shaul Elovitch  along with his wife  son and other top Bezeq executives.
Former journalists at the Walla news site have attested to being pressured to refrain from negative reporting of  Netanyahu .  Netanyahu   who held the communications portfolio until last year  has not yet been named as a suspect in the case but is expected to be questioned. Filber has reportedly agreed to turn state witness against  Netanyahu  in return for a lesser sentence.
 Netanyahu  has not been named as a suspect  but some of  his  closest associates have been implicated in probe related to a possible conflict of interest involving a $2 billion purchase of German submarines.  Netanyahu âs personal attorney  who is also  his  cousin  represented the German firm involved and is suspected of using  his  influence over the prime minister in return for a hefty cut of the deal.
As if  Netanyahu  didnât have enough problems  police said Tuesday that Hefetz  his former media adviser  is suspected of trying to bribe a judge in exchange for dropping a corruption case against the Israeli leaderâs wife. Hefetz is suspected of suggesting  through a middleman  to Judge Hila Gerstel in 2015 that she could be appointed attorney general if she dismissed a pending case against Sara Netanyahuâs excessive household spending.

Negative


question:
What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Ron Johnson ? Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) is surrounded by reporters as he goes to vote on Capitol Hill in Washington. (Susan Walsh/AP)
The lawmakers attracting the most concern from leadership and the White House are Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) and Steve Daines (R-Mont.)  who say the current version of the bill favors corporations over other businesses.
It’s unclear if  Johnson  would accept these changes as sufficient  and a final decision hasn’t been made. If Republican leaders believe  Johnson ’s demands have become too unreasonable  they could try and forge ahead without  his  vote.
Spokesmen for  Johnson  and Daines didn’t have an immediate comment on the discussions.
At least six GOP members have raised concerns about specific provisions in the GOP tax bill  though none has flatly said they plan to vote against it this week.  Johnson  came closest  saying  he  opposed the measure but later suggesting  he  could support it with changes.
Voting on the tax measure is scheduled to begin Tuesday  as the Senate Budget Committee plans to take a procedural step that afternoon that would effectively send the tax bill to the Senate floor. But  Johnson  is on the budget panel  and  he  could demand changes by Tuesday in order to win  his  vote. If  he  blocks the tax bill in the Budget Committee and is joined by Sen. Bob Corker (R-Tenn.)  who has raised separate concerns  the package could quickly die.

Neutral
