TL;DR Summary

Opposition leaders in Israel have vowed to continue their fight against the government's judicial overhaul bill, which advanced in its first reading. The bill aims to curtail judges' oversight of politicians and block judicial review over the "reasonableness" of politicians' decisions. The opposition leaders criticized the government's actions as anti-democratic and vowed to protest against the bill. The legislation needs to pass two more readings to become law, and the coalition aims to complete the process before the Knesset breaks for the summer. Supporters argue that the bill allows elected representatives to have the final say on policy, while critics argue that it removes an important check on arbitrary decision-making.
