Libertarian Conference Disrupted by Anti-Government Protesters.
Anti-government protesters interrupted Communications Minister Shlomo Karhi and Knesset Constitutional, Law and Justice Committee chair Simcha Rothman at a libertarian conference in Tel Aviv on Sunday. Karhi denied falsely that he had ever told reservist pilots to “go to hell.” Protesters against the government’s judicial overhaul plan have been hounding and heckling coalition politicians at events across the country in recent months as they seek to keep up the pressure on the government to shelve its far-reaching plans to shackle the judiciary.
