Netanyahu's Political Maneuvers Spark Unrest in Israel.
TL;DR Summary
The Biden administration has urged Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to abandon his proposed overhaul of the judiciary, which would have weakened the Supreme Court. The White House has expressed sympathy for Netanyahu's position, given his right-wing coalition's opposition to compromise. President Biden has called for a compromise that upholds democratic values and the independence of the judiciary. Some officials believe that Biden's public comments were too cautious and that he should have issued a more full-throated condemnation of the judiciary overhaul from the beginning.
