As missile sirens blared, protesters accused Israel’s judiciary of blocking democratic rule and vowed to push forward judicial reform.
Judicial Reform
Separation of powers is not a new idea, and was proposed before the original entry into the Promised Land. All three powers must work together to accomplish God’s vision.
Only together can Israel win – not only on the battlefield, but also before the international courts.
The decision is seen as akin to the American Supreme Court striking down an amendment to the US Constitution.
It’s not always easy to have a prominent neighbor. This became clear to me when the first demonstrators passed in front of my garden with their flags.
Judicial reform has not gone the way the government hoped, with the Supreme Court taking the opportunity to secure even more power, observers say.
As internal hatred intensifies in Israel, two rabbis say they faced ‘savage’ mob in Tel Aviv; fresh talk of civil war.
Apparently, only some of them can, as the father of Israel’s “Constitutional Revolution” has argued.
“Until now, the court never said, ‘We have the power to reverse Basic Laws,’ and that is what we may see here.”
Protesters slam the Supreme Court’s intervention in judicial reform legislation.
