Who needs Soros when you have our State Department?
Olmert == Marxist excrement
I’m not sure if you remember it, but a ‘call’ was something Mossad did to a terrorist boss. Somehow, they found out what kind of cell phone the guy used. They got another phone exactly like the terrorist’s and they found a way to pack it with explosives. They managed to get it into his compound and swap it with his regular phone.
Once they knew he had it, and it was on him, a Mossad member called him, and as he put it up to his ear, the agent pressed a key...BOOM.
Scratch one terrorist..
Can’t say as I remember it, but it works for me. 🤣
The Israelis haven’t fought the Arabs in a while. Guess they’re bores. So they’ll end up in a civil war.
The Sun....
Yes, did you have Our Mr. Sun film shown in class? I thought it was great. Found out it was directed by he famous Frank Capra. GE sponsored it. Eddie Albert was in it.
Now on YouTube.
Haven’t tried watching it but I remember the huge solar flare seen which brought gasps when shown. Now they’re hitting Earth.
But before pressing that button, they told him his auto warranty was about to expire.
Agree 100% Your evaluation is correct. I hear only 10% of Israelis are lefties. The theatrical sized leftist hate there for N and his judicial reforms is the same as what Trump got here
Israeli Left= not logical but full of thespians and aspiring thespians
Does anyone understand what the judicial reforms are all about? I’ve tried to understand but with not much success.
Other than the coordination, massive funding, publicity, sign printing, speeches, and public statements and speeches in support, the US State department had very little involvement.
(That’s sarcasm, in case any one didn’t catch it.)
Biden, soros, bill gates, Facebook, Google, us state officials are are directly involved.
Others can explain it better. Among the issues that strike me as bizarre, currently the Israeli BAR association appoints the majority of judges, 5 of 9 I believe. Perhaps more unusual, the court can invalidate a law based on it’s own viewpoint, even absent a claim with standing, clearly the court legislating. Of course like some other parliamentary governments, Israel has no Constitution requiring super majorities in some cases. And with no legislative override of decisions. Imagine, in the Obama days the court could simply ban semi-automatic weapons in the interest of health. Congress could do nothing. And new Justices who could override prior decisions would be appointed by the BAR. Trump’s election would have meant nothing as to the composition of the court. There are some other issues the reforms would change. And I’m open to correction if I’ve misstated the issues.
There are four reforms planned:
1. The Supreme Court in Israel is more of a legislative body than in the USA. It is not as strictly limited by the “case or controversy” limitation, but can act on its own, and basically veto any law. It uses this power very aggressively to act as the un-elected head of government in Israel and in a very Leftist manner, as they are all Leftists. The first proposal is to allow the people’s democratically-elected representatives overrule the un-elected judge’s edicts. Biden and the Left considers this democratic check on the Court’s power “fascism” and “against democracy”.
2. Related to number one, the Supreme Court created a rule that it could override legislation and laws based on whether the body considered it “reasonable”. So it’s not like checking against the text of the the First Amendment and saying “nope, Constitution says you can’t do that.” It’s a judicially-created rule that says “if we judges would legislate in a different manner, we’ll do so”. Again, stripping un-elected judges of the power to do whatever they felt like is “fascism”, according to Biden, et al.
3. Judges are really appointed in Israel by a private cabal of the bar association, with little input by the the elected officials. The reform will change this so the elected officials will have the final say on judges. Again, because the private cabal is Leftist, having the people’s representatives pick judges is “fascism” and (barely paraphrasing )”something out of the Third Reich”.
4. The actual cabinet officials don’t really run their department. Instead, they HAVE to do what un-appointed, un-fireable, lawyers in the departments say. These lifetime Leftist government hacks are all Leftists. So, again, allowing elected (and also appointed) officials actually govern, and not be figureheads to the actual leaders, who are Leftist hacks, is “fascism”.
So there you go.
Basically, the Left is upset that their unchecked power is being checked by the will of the People. So they are rioting.
Netanyahu has already caved.
No doubt he’s trying to bring in Gantz and discard Ben Gvir.
I’m not sure what you’re talking about.
This? Ben-Gvir got control of National Guard in exchange for support of judicial reform delay.
