Biden Tells Netanyahu He Backs Compromise In ‘Israeli’ ‘Judicial Reform’

 

The ‘judicial reform’ plans of Netanyahu’s hard-right government have triggered 11 straight weeks of protests in the ‘Israeli’-occupied territories.

 

The reforms would, among other things, allow members of the Zionist parliament [Knesset] to scrap ‘supreme court’ rulings with a simple majority vote.

 

Opponents of the package have accused Netanyahu, who is on trial on corruption charges he denies, of trying to use the reforms to quash possible judgments against him. The prime minister has rejected the accusation.

 

Expressing concern over the deepening rift in ‘Israeli’ society, the Zionist entity’s ‘President’ Isaac Herzog presented a proposed compromise on Wednesday, but the government rejected it.
