I guess we'll see. A common thread in Israel is that many former generals and Mossad members turn to the left after experiencing the horrors of war. I challenge any leftist posting here to see how they would deal with neighbors that want you eliminated and killed. But I suspect with recent political realignments in the Mideast that are a direct result of Democratic party foreign policy blunders will ultimately draw conflicting sides in Israel together. One thing that unites Israelis more than anything is the threat of annihilation. Now that the Biden administration has pushed Saudi Arabia (and probably the UAE) in the China camp along with Iran, Israel again is becoming more isolated and at risk for again facing existential threats.

What legit sources are you thinking about? Shoving what is in essence a constitutional and structural change down a country's throat without proper due course, debate, collection of consensus, etc. is never a morally good thing.

DaEagles was the one who said he was basing his statements on "legit sources" without ever naming them - so your question on legit sources should be directed to him, not me. Israel has no constitution, so there can be no constitutional change. The actions of the Knesset and proposed legislation are in direct response to a horrendous power grab by Aharon Barak who was the equivalent of the Chief Justice of the Israeli Supreme Court. Even opposition Yair Lapid supported a version of judicial reform. https://www.jewishpress.com/news/israel/the-knesset/knesset-opposition-leader-yair-lapid-now-supports-judicial-reform/2023/01/23/

I'm saying it is a level of change that is at the level of a constitutional change. Judicial reform is a good thing for Israel. The manner in which they are conducting it and the proposal itself are not.
