It is.
Used to only be on the cusp. Once you’re on the brink, that’s it.
*Shrugs shoulders*
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.
Thank you for explaining it.
Our State Department is behind this 100%.
[It seems as if the whole world is on the brink.]
If only there was some man who could arise to promise “Peace and Security” by dividing Israel for “peace” for 7 years...
That Old Serpent called the Dragon and Satan is setting this world up for 7 years of Tribulation.
Luke 21:34-36
The world cannot live with the left and the right in coexistence. Who is eliminated first or do we need a mass existence like Tunguska first?
Next comes the 'Tipping Point'.............followed by the 'Watershed Moment'................
Thanks for that. It’s similar to what is happening here. The left uses the courts and gets pissed if the courts don’t agree with them.
LOL
This looks like the Leftists are larger than the 10% I have been reading.

Thanks for the explanation. Most of the reports have been lacking in what the specifics of the reform are. I guess that is a deliberate attempt to hide the fact that the reforms would actually make the court more democratic rather than less. Typical leftist obfuscation.
IMHO we are living in the most transformative era mankind has ever witnessed.
We will have the first Global Civil War at least, and this may mark the beginning of the Revelations in Scripture.
We know about the demonstrations but the article says nothing about the proposed change at the root.
What judicial change is proposed?
Bibi is also under “PR pressure” because the 75th anniversary of Israel occurs in early May, so having a civil war/major unrest is not a good look for such a big occasion ...
