Israel’s parliament has voted into law a controversial curb on some supreme court powers submitted by Benjamin Netanyahu’s government, the Knesset speaker has said.
The bill passed by a vote of 64-0, the speaker added, after opposition lawmakers abandoned the Knesset plenum in protest.
I know this is like talking about an ex, but I find it absolutely bizarre that the news about Israeli judicial overhaul is not being covered at all on Reddit in r/worldnews. This is a bfd, and not a single post above the fold over there.
I’ve barely seen talk of this anywhere, really.
I’m pretty sure the mods there actively censor any negative news about Israel and it’s government, even when it’s internal matters like this that is pinning Israelis against Israelis and not directly part of any larger conflict.
