Demonstrators against the legal revolution this morning (Monday) blocked the door of Knesset member Tali Gottlieb's house in Givat Shmuel, and caused an uproar when they prevented her daughter, who has special needs, from going to an educational setting.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and opposition leader Yair Lapid condemned the protesters. Two protesters were arrested.
"When protesters prevent public representatives from coming and voting in the Knesset, and make an autistic girl miserable, it is not a legitimate protest," Netanyahu said. "The protesters who talk about democracy are the ones who bring the An end when they prevent public representatives from exercising the fundamental right in democracy - to vote.
I call on the police to act immediately and allow the members of the Knesset to reach the Mishkan."
They barricaded her house.

Lapid said: "Strongly condemns the siege on the house of Knesset member Tali Gottlieb, mother of a child with special needs, and the fact that she was not allowed to take the child out. This is not our way. This is not the way of protest. Sending Tali a boost and her daughter a hug."
Knesset Speaker Amir Ohana condemned the actions of the protesters: "The attempt to block Knesset members from coming to the Knesset and voting is a show of hands against democracy.
This is especially abhorrent when it is done to a Knesset member who is also the mother of a child with special needs, who wishes to take her home into the educational framework.
That's how you don't build bridges, that's how you burn them."
"I expect everyone who really values Israeli democracy to condemn this shameful violence with all their mouths.
All members of the Knesset who wish to vote will come to the Knesset today, and no one will prevent this possibility," Ohana continued. "I expect the Israel Police not only to immediately remove any lawbreaker who raises his hand against democracy, but also to prosecute him with all severity."

We reached it today because we continue and continue to block the coup with our bodies, we will not stop until the legislation is repealed."
"The current government has declared war on Israeli democracy and thus on the basic rights of all of us. It is a government with fascist characteristics that seeks to tattoo and destroy the democratic system in which it was elected," the activists added.
"From the day she showed a willingness to crush the judiciary and abolish the separation of powers - she lost her legitimacy to rule. We will oppose her in any non-violent way, we are not afraid to pay a personal price. We call and call on all members of the government - get off the tree. Start working for us instead of fighting at home The law. This is the country of all of us, not of a prime minister."
