'It is not necessary to send the Proud Boys to storm the Capitol to attempt a coup,' said one former Israeli ambassador. 'Abusing a tiny legislative majority to crush the judiciary and the nature of Israel's democracy is also a coup.'
: "Israel does not have a constitution, and the separation between the legislative and executive branches is very weak as the government almost always holds a majority in the Knesset [parliament]. This makes the Supreme Court the only institution with the power to limit government actions and legislation passed by a parliamentary majority. Now Levin wants to take that power away."
;“It is not necessary to send the "Proud Boys" to storm the Capitol to attempt a coup. Abusing a tiny legislative majority to crush the judiciary & the nature of Israel's democracy is also a coup. It is time for Israelis to stand up to corrupt extremists to defend our democracy.;”Levin's proposal would also change how Israel's judges are selected.
