Dr. Haim Shine comments on the continued efforts of the Israeli supreme court to undermine the country's democratic system:

Israel is changing rapidly. The old elite and the oaths that led the Zionist movement and the state for years have lost their influence. That can be seen most clearly in the disintegration of the Labor Party.

The Supreme Court remains the last stronghold of the founding elite. The few justices that are conservative or religious, however, seem to be unimportant. The chief justice, who decides what panels of justices will debate sensitive cases, decides the results.

Many members of the public are convinced that the Supreme Court is trying to undermine the government – something unacceptable in a democratic regime – and force it to accept positions, values, and opinions with which most of society does not agree.

From the time of former Chief Justice Aharon Barak, the Supreme Court has forced extreme liberal opinions on Israeli society, opinions imported from the west coast of the United States that are far from expressing the feelings of most of Israeli society. These decisions have come under criticism both from justices and lawyers with international reputations.

Read more of this to learn how, if anything, all the court's done is imitate leftists in the USA in their continued obsession with powermongering.
