JUST IN: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu fires his defense minister after Yoav Gallant's call for a pause on the judicial overhaul.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu fired Defense Minister Yoav Gallant after he dramatically broke ranks and called for a pause in the government’s drive to overhaul Israel’s court system, the Prime Minister’s Office said in a statement on Sunday. “Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has decided to remove Defense Minister Yoav Galant from his post,” the statement said.

The government argues the changes are essential to rein in the Supreme Court, which they see as insular, elitist, and no longer representative of the Israeli people. Opponents say the plans threaten the foundations of Israeli democracy. The military reservists’ protest is seen as a particular worry for Israel’s government, as they are regularly called up to train and serve, even in peacetime.

Benjamin Netanyahu who is accused of bribery, fraud and breach of trust, does not want to go to prison. That is why he is destroying democracy in the State of Israel.

like Cambodia...

Thank you.

Just another dictator. Very dangerous

davemcclure Bibi is off the rails. Never should have been elected in the first place, almost thirty years ago.

I think the defense minister is on the right track, pity he cannot yield influence now.

It’s official. Israel is now just as morally bankrupt as Iran.

There can be no democracy with occupation!!! Free Palestine 🇵🇸!

He is sick!!!

Netanyahu just started the demise of his govt - the world can finally see what a terrible person Netanyahu has become...he caused the death of Rabin - and now the terrible upheaval of Israel and its people

Megalomaniac removes opposition voice hmmmmm where have I heard that before 🤔🤔🤔🤔

Israel supporged Trump. Now they have their own form of Trump. The kind of fascists that persecuted their people

Netanyahu proved that he’s determined to become a dictator

United States needs to cut off all aid to Israel

Now that was pretty predictable……Bibi sees himself as a dictator. Can’t believe they elected him again. Sad.

Benjamin Netanyahu is a fascist

Our special country is falling into itself with a government that decided to take us towards dictatorship

Once upon a time, bibi was gonna be the wonder boy who fostered real peace with Israel’s neighbors. How far he has fallen But the people voted for this. Wonder how many Israelis sat the election out and whether it would have made a difference

The exception of someone good that doesn’t want to screw his people !!! Imagine what they’re capable of doing…

Crooked politician is in power so he can murder and steel land for Iseral.

Benjamin Netanyahu is destroying the State of Israel in his desperate attempts to escape his sentence.

This would be Trump's ultimate dream.

Netanyahu is a problem.

Firing the opposition, changing the constitution to protect yourself from removal or prosecution... sounds a bit authoritarian, to me.

It’s a poor leader who fires anyone who disagrees with him.

Erdoğan

alig várom, hogy sz*ros vamzer elek gábor tiltakozó cikket írjon a vincentblogon

This is terrible. Israel is falling under fascism. I can’t even believe I just typed that sentence.

He is a very bad person.

That country deserves better

Welp

Israel is the world's largest asylum.
