Benjamin Netanyahu’s justice minister has unveiled the new government’s long-promised overhaul of the judicial system that aims to weaken the supreme court. Critics say the plan will undermine Israel’s democracy by giving absolute power to the most rightwing coalition in the country’s history.
The justice minister, Yariv Levin, a confidant of Netanyahu’s and a longtime critic of the supreme court, presented his plan a day before the justices debate a new law passed by the government allowing a politician convicted of tax offences to serve as a cabinet minister. “The time has come to act,” Levin said.
He proposed a series of changes aimed at curbing the powers of the judiciary, including allowing lawmakers to pass laws that the high court has struck down and in effect deemed unconstitutional. [Post edited 4 Jan 2023 21:34]

That coalition government is really scary. Probably only going to get worse for the Palestinians as it seems they're letting the most loopy racists and supremacists run the West Bank.
A viable two-state solution is almost certainly gone – and there's no way a one-state solution will be tolerated by these fundamentalists.
And we just watched it all happen. |  |

I upvoted you because your thread is on the money.
But for all those reading this, go and read Darths post again.
Then realise the state of affairs that this area has been in for the last 55 years, yes 55 and counting. It's a sh*t show and always has been.
I'm not anti-semetic. I have no issue with the jews, just the right wing nut jobs who rule Israel. |  |
