Thousands gathered on Saturday (Saturday) in Rabin Square in Tel Aviv for the demonstration of "the black flags" under the headline "Not the surrender agreement - yes to democracy". The demonstration takes place later in previous demonstrations, this week and the previous Saturday. Among the speakers: former GSS chief Carmi Gilon and journalist Ron Coffman. Featured artists: Dana Berger and Dan Thorne.

Shakma Schwartzman, one of the organizers of the black flag protest, said at the beginning of the demonstration that "unity is not a coalition agreement that violates the basic laws of the State of Israel. If unity, you should establish a wall between a criminal defendant and the judicial system." 

Schwartzman turned to Blue and White Chairman Benny Gantz and demanded: "Promise and for a change to take place - not to raise a hand on the justice system. Make sure there is one law for everyone. "  

The organizers of the protest note that "in the days of severe economic hardship, without a plan to deal with the situation of millions of unemployed - a government is set up that is completely vulnerable to the rule of law." They added that "instead of worrying about an economic rescue program for civilian and civilian dictionaries, we are working on arranging for 52 ministers and deputy ministers. We are determined to protect democracy. There are moments when citizens need to lead - it's everyone's time to come out and protest."
