Yitzhak Amit on his way to make the biggest mistake of the High Court
An opinion article claims that Supreme Court President Yitzhak Amit is heading toward the biggest mistake of the High Court in his intention to disqualify the Levin-Saar amendment. The author warns that this disqualification will lead to the establishment of a constitutional court that will empty the High Court of its political power.
An opinion article by Moshe Cohen-Eliya claims that Supreme Court President Yitzhak Amit is heading toward the biggest mistake of the High Court. The author analyzes the High Court's intention to disqualify the Levin-Saar amendment to change the composition of the Judicial Selection Committee, and warns that this disqualification will actually lead to the establishment of a constitutional court, which will strip the High Court of its political powers, including the disqualification of laws. The author argues that the High Court is delaying the publication of its ruling for political reasons, and that juristocracy is the most polarizing factor in Israeli society. The article concludes that a unity government, which will be forced to deal with the consequences of the disqualification, is the greatest threat to the High Court's political power.
