Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Justice, Yariv Levin this morning (Sunday) launched a sharp attack on the 18 judges and former presidents of the supreme court who yesterday sharply criticized the legal reform, in an opinion statement they signed.
Minister Levin wrote that: "A group of lawyers who do not respect the results of the elections are now working to carry out a coup d'état and put Prime Minister Netanyahu in prison. It is no wonder that the partners in this move are the same ones who lead the opposition to the legal reform. The left-wing organization known as the Movement for the Quality of Government, the legal advisor to the government and the judge of the Supreme Court.
"An attempt to oust a prime minister against the law, while trampling on the democratic choice, is no different from a coup carried out using tanks. The intention is the same, and the result is the same. We will not allow this attempted coup, which illustrates how necessary a reform in the judicial system is. A reform that will restore democracy and balances And the brakes between the government authorities."
