A day after Attorney David Hodak, one of Israel's top lawyers, attacked the legal reform in an extreme manner, Justice Minister Yariv Levin addressed the matter this morning (Thursday) and claimed that "the consultant and her team are busy writing another opinion whose purpose is to prevent the Prime Minister from expressing his views." At the same time, following the storm, the police attached threat level 6 security to the Yamash.
"Yesterday we heard very serious things from the mouth of a lawyer at a conference held by the Bar Association," said Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Justice, Yariv Levin.

According to him, "One would have expected the legal advisor to the government to act and make a clear voice on this matter. But no. The advisor and her team are busy writing another opinion whose purpose is to prevent the prime minister from expressing his views. It turns out that a conflict of interest is a strange thing. An elected official is not allowed to talk about reforming legal advice, But the legal adviser and her team are allowed to act to thwart the reform that directly concerns their powers."
His partner in the coalition, Minister of National Security Itamar Ben Gvir, also attacked Gali Beharve-Miara: "The ombudsman is trying to threaten the Prime Minister and the Israeli government.
Threats do not change policy and the government will not fold.
If you want a dialogue, it's legitimate, but you have to understand that such threats only spur the government to pass the reform as quickly as possible."

As mentioned, Levin's words come after Hodak attacked the apparent reform.
"I don't understand where Benjamin Netanyahu and Rival Levin get the courage to even make such a proposal. I have decided that I will not live one day in a dictatorship, and if I have to fight for it - I will fight. The government does not understand what mud it is getting into."
