"Divided Opinions: Israelis Split on Court Overhaul, with a Minority Fully Supporting Netanyahu"

While most Israelis oppose the government's plan to weaken the courts, a minority of right-leaning Israelis, who largely support Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, back the controversial judicial overhaul. They see it as a necessary step towards democracy, arguing that the current judicial system lacks checks and balances. Critics, however, view the reform as a threat to Israeli democracy, as it curtails the powers of the Supreme Court, the only body that checks the executive and legislative branches. Supporters of the overhaul include those loyal to Netanyahu, those seeking to protect Israel's Jewish nationalist identity, and those frustrated with Supreme Court decisions.
