Former Justice Minister MK Ayelet Shaked, chairman of the new right-wing party on Wednesday, said in an emergency meeting on Wednesday: "Keeping the rule of law" states that "the judiciary can not handle the mandate of forming a government "This is a hostile takeover of the justice system in democracy in Israel. The public will not accept it and I know it will not happen."
Shaked also added at a conference, initiated by MK Revital Souid, that "the law cannot allow the prime minister to serve the judiciary and come up with new laws. I tell you, it won't go quietly and I ask, don't do such a thing. Let the people decide, he is no less wise than the High Court judges.
Justice Elyakim Rubinstein, Deputy President of the Supreme Court, referred to the submarine case: "I have question marks on the submarines - there is no situation where there is a security issue and the prime minister does not inform the defense minister and the chief of staff. It is improper and it has a bad smell. Even if the issue does not meet the standards of criminal investigation, it is still worthy of thorough scrutiny. ”He further said,“ The prosecutor's office is not a perfect body, neither of us is perfect. But there is no State Attorney's Office, no State within a State. "
MK Revital Suyd (Labor-Bridge) Conference Initiative, said during the conference: "Out of today's Knesset came an unequivocal call - just about the wild incitement of defendants and interested parties against the prosecution and the judiciary, before we reach an irreversible result that we all regret. Former senior attorneys, lawyers and public figures have all said - there is room for criticism of the system, there is no room for wild deportation by those who cling to immunity as altar judges - a mission whose sole purpose is to crush the system that he himself is headed. This is the most important public statement, especially today when we Are about to enter a third election campaign only because of the prime minister's legal situation Conditionality ".
