>The supreme court which is supposedly independent and a very strong human rights law
This is the problem - the supreme court is very leftist and has the "authoritarian power" to reject any bill they deem "unreasonable". This is what they are fighting about.
Ultimately the fight is about what happens to the state when the majority is religious, which is a demographic inevitability given current trends.
- invalidname 3y agoThe supreme court "pretends" to be leftist. That's all part of the trick. Remember that the Human rights law was passed by a Licud government. They approved laws prohibiting Jews from working on the sabath, destroying houses of terrorist families (collective punishment isn't legal in a democracy) etc. But they're perceived as Liberal by the right since they need to blame someone for the pragmatism of their own MPs. > Ultimately the fight is about what happens to the state when the majority is religious, which is a demographic inevitability given current trends. Yes. Although they don't need a majority. All they need is enough non-religious useful idiots who think this is about right vs. left...
