Limor Smimian-demanded


The dramatic call to save democracy through judicial reform is currently being mocked by the "critical" leftists. With a friction of hands and a joyful nod, they plead with the right: "How come you just remembered to wave this flag?" It is difficult to understand what causes opinionated types, some intellectuals, to volunteer to reveal to many their disgraceful ignorance of the activity and conceptual discourse that the conservative right in Israel has led in recent decades around legal and legal issues. No one is "just thinking about it now," and the fact that you haven't bothered to open books and magazines doesn't mean they don't exist. Complete gaps in education - and then we'll talk.

But the point of interest: there are objective reasons for which conditions have matured, precisely now, to come out more intensely in the struggle, and it is not difficult to explain why Netanyahu is the one who should lead him.

Let’s start with coalition reasons. In the past decade, the Likud has been in power, but there has always been a partner, at least one, who opposed any change. In 2009 there was a coalition with the Labor Party and Barak, and with him in the seventh there were also Meridor, Begin and Ya'alon. You can imagine what their position was against the changes tried by Justice Minister Jacob Ne'eman, namely: The Basic Law and the Split-Role of the Judiciary. In 2013 there was a coalition with Torch who headed a party with 19 seats, and his partner from the Movement, Livni, Justice Minister , In 2015, until it finally had a coalition of 67 seats, Moses Kahlon suddenly raised the banner of the "sane right" and promised not to let anyone "raise a hand" on the court. , Any change is framed as danger and insanity, and encounters a veto or threat of overthrowing the government.

Remember, anyone who dared to be a conceptual or practical partner for any change in these systems was similar. Jacob Ne'eman and Reuben Rivlin were stopped before entering the Minister's office; Haim Ramon was ousted and Daniel Friedman was introduced as a mad professor who no one cared about. Ayelet Shaked, who promised to "win" over the High Court, did not even dare to replace the office manager who inherited from Tzipi Livni. Her close associate, Efi Nave, who sinned with her in judicial appointments, was incriminated by theft and burglary of his phone, and those responsible were even granted immunity. It is hard to miss today the effort to hurt the good name of Minister Amir Ohana, or the pressure exerted on Orly Ben Ari to waive the appointment as Deputy State Attorney.

And now allow me to ask back: Where have you been, or how do you propose to lead the necessary change? Times have changed, the crop has grown, and finally - thanks to the critical discourse on the right - the public understands the gravity of the situation. See your leaders: Lapid opposes change, Gantz fills his water, Ashkenazi is down to his neck in his affairs and some of you believe the problem in the High Court is at all part of the "Occupation Crimes." You do not want a change because And the entire judicial revolution is part of the Left's reaction to the '77 revolution and its efforts to prevent the changes at all costs.

And so, this time too, the right is left alone in the arena to effect the change. And in it there is only one who has shown that he is unbreakable in the face of pressures, is not committed to the system, and not extortionate in the face of its threats. His name is Benjamin Netanyahu.
