Fair enough; it may just be how it looks from my vantage point as a non-Israeli. I should also have said "major voice" instead of "leading figure" but that might also be wrong. That said I watched him (on YouTube) give what looked like a major address to an enormous group of demonstrators. So, who would you say are the major voices of the protests?
- tguvot 3y agopretty much everybody who had >10k twitter followers probably could address demonstrators. Protests are managed and organized by people who are listed on this page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2023_Israeli_judicial_reform_protests https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2023_Israeli_judicial_reform_p.... kiYou can say that they are the voices of protests. Opposition parties (with their structures) stay aside, in order to avoid accusations that that protests are simply a way to bring coalition down, etc. During protests there is a bunch of people who make speeches, including current opposition leaders, ex supreme court judges, ex president, ex leaders/ministers from right parties, etc. Pretty much everybody fairly known in Israel.
