Protest Leaders Expose Internal Threat to Israel on '60 Minutes'

Leaders of the Brothers and Sisters in Arms, a protest group against the Israeli government's judicial overhaul efforts, warn of an existential threat to Israel from within. They argue that the government's bid to gain unlimited power and curb the judiciary's powers poses a serious danger. The protesters, including military reservists, pilots, academics, and legal professionals, have been organizing weekly mass protests for 37 consecutive weeks. The government has dismissed their concerns, accusing them of being anti-Israel and financially backed by external forces. Supporters argue that the overhaul is necessary to curb the powers of an unrestrained judiciary, while critics fear it will undermine Israel's democratic system.
