Sunday's Supreme Court ruling, which was decided by a single vote, restored the adjective "democratic" to the description of the State of Israel. It removed from above the heads of the Israeli service members who risk their lives in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank the threat of arrest and prosecution in Europe. It also put in their rightful place the leaders of the government coup, who dealt a mortal blow to the economy, security, international standing and social solidarity of the state on October 7.

Justice Minister Yariv Levin's reaction to the ruling shows that he has not surrendered. The dangerous extremist who is identified with the damage wreaked by the "reform" more than any other individual is not satisfied with the disaster he has already caused. He has vowed to try again. If he and his fellow members of the terrible coalition of 64 lawmakers are not ousted after the war, there is a chance that they will succeed next time: The Supreme Court currently has a conservative majority regarding relations among the branches of government.

If Dery and his partners in the Prime Minister's Office thought they would get the wheels of legislation rolling and the High Court of Justice would lie quietly and let them bully the Knesset and its committees while the court wait until the January 12 deadline, they don't understand the world they live in. This is a war for Israel's character, and the Supreme Court is the final fortress.

The right rampaged repulsively last night, as is its wont, about former Supreme Court President Esther Hayut, who led the majority opinion. But the right bears full responsibility for the result: Levin and Simcha Rothman and Bezalel Smotrich and Itamar Ben-Gvir, who opposed any compromise in the language of the law. (Netanyahu apparently supported a compromise but capitulated to the others' threats.) If the law had been softened, the bottom line in the Supreme Court might have been different.

High Court's New Ruling: The Sum of All Fears for Netanyahu Family

Two days after blocking the abolition of the reasonableness standard, Israel's top court also quashed the law meant to deprive the AG of the legal option of declaring the prime minister unfit for office. At least for the duration of the war, Netanyahu's planned putsch against Israeli democracy has been stopped thanks to the liberal majority on the bench

The High Court of Justice on Wednesday erased – again by a single-vote majority – yet another stain in the Israeli lawbooks, this one called the Incapacitation Law, or, alternatively, the "Netanyahu-family victim complex law."
The liberal-activist majority on the bench, headed by outgoing court President Esther Hayut, which earlier this week struck down the abolition of the reasonableness standard, stated in simple words, understandable to any reasonably literate person, that this amendment born in sin, in haste, even in sloppiness, was meant for no other purpose but to serve the political and personal interests of one man, who is also a criminal defendant.

To that end, nothing less than a legal act of obscenity was committed upon the Basic Law on the Government. The legislators, in their smugness, didn't even hide their motives when they ran the legislation through the Knesset last March: To deprive Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara of the legal option of declaring the prime minister incapacitated, or unfit for office, due to his repeated, defiant violations of the conflict of interest agreement he signed.
Netanyahu himself appeared before the cameras immediately following the law's passage, announcing, free and clear: "I'm getting into this thing," referring to the Knesset talks over the judicial coup.

Other than putting "Personal" in the law's title, the coalition members, headed by the subject of the law himself, did everything to expose themselves in public.
