Former Shin Bet chief Ami Ilon addressed the protests against the legal revolution promoted by the government this morning (Friday) and said that "we should all be very concerned, the energy is at levels I don't really remember, and therefore all such energy, when people come to a reality where they have no other way to stop the What they see as the destruction of all the things they live for, I think we should be afraid of people who will translate it into violence."

"This whole process is to get Binyamin Netanyahu out of his trial, Levin said it outright," added Elon in an interview with Nissim Mashal on 103FM.
"There are sane people in Likud, they must understand that in order to get the prime minister out of prison they are destroying everything that is happening here. The protest will not stop - it will continue and escalate."

The revolution planned by the government includes a series of significant changes in the legal system, such as a determination that only an expanded composition of the High Court can invalidate legislation passed by the Knesset. Another step of the revolution, designed to strengthen the government's hand vis-à-vis the court, is the establishment of a superseding clause that will nullify decisions of the High Court by a majority of only 61 members of the Knesset, as well as changing the composition of the committee for the selection of judges so that it is fully controlled by the coalition.
The reform also deals with weakening the power of the legal advisors to the government, so that their position will not bind the government, and with eliminating the reason for reasonableness, which, among other things, significantly limits the court's ability to intervene in the appointment of senior officials.
