Israel’s Renewed Judicial Overhaul (Amichai Cohen, Yuval Shany – Lawfare)

The “seven-front war” against Israel, which followed the atrocities of Oct. 7, 2023, and Israel’s full invasion of the Gaza Strip, has recently shown clear signs of receding. Ceasefire agreements regarding hostilities in Lebanon and the Gaza Strip have entered into force in recent weeks, and other regional developments in Syria, Iran, Iraq, Yemen, and the West Bank reduce the immediate security threat posed to Israel. Yet some members of Israel’s ruling right-wing coalition have interpreted the improvement in Israel’s geo-strategic situation as a green light for them to revive their long-held “judicial reform” agenda and to reignite some of the tensions that tore apart Israeli society in the months leading up to the Oct. 7 attack.
