The ongoing political scandal in Israel has already affected civilians. The country, which is facing a "historic" constitutional crisis, is in the grip of deep disagreements that could tear it apart. The protests accompanied by up to 80,000 civilians against the reforms of former Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Israel, caused serious tension.

According to Israeli political analyst Dr. Hay Eytan Cohen Yanarocak, who spoke to Ednews, Netanyahu's opponents consider this reform against democracy.

"The crisis in Israel is unconstitutional because Israel does not have a constitution. Since its inception, the state has been governed by a body of laws called the fundamental law. Justice Minister Yariv Levin complains that many laws they passed in the parliament in the past were arbitrarily canceled by the Supreme Court. For this reason, Benjamin Netanyahu decided to reform "to end the rule of the minority over the majority". With this reform, the judicial control of the government is severely limited in favour of the government. For this reason, Netanyahu's opponents evaluate this reform as a blow to democracy and criticize the principle of separation of powers.

The expert made a legal statement of the intention of "Bibi" who wants to lead the government again to completely change the constitution and the supreme court system, based on 5 articles: "The answer to this question lies only in the 5 articles that I will list:

a) The law returned from the Supreme Court enters into force by the parliament with 61 votes.

b) Replacing 2 members of the Israeli Bar with government representatives during the appointment of Supreme Court judges. In this way, government elections will be decisive in the appointment of judges.

c) The government can appoint the chairman and deputy chairman of the Supreme Court who are not members of the Supreme Court.

d) The authority to judge according to the worldview of the judges, known as the principle of logic or the principle of reasonableness, is taken from the courts.

e) The recommendations of the Prosecutor General, who is the representative of the judiciary in the government, will not be binding.

It should be noted that the joining of 80,000 citizens to the protests in Tel Aviv also led to an increase in tension within the country. Commenting on opposition leader Yair Lapid's idea of a civil war or the danger of division in the country, the political analyst said that polarization will increase in the country.

"Although the protests did not lead to civil war, it is certain that the current polarization will increase. I hope that a common understanding will be found, because both sides seem ready enough to take advantage of the current situation," he said.
