Looks like Benny may have finally gone too far.

Extreme, radical or ultra conservative?

It remains important to support democracy financially in order to balance the impact of other players.

If you wanted to see what baldy orange cunto (or the GOP for that matter) would do if given the opportunity, this is the perfect example.

I suggest any attempt to remove the judiciary from checks and balances, will result in another Putin style of autocracy.

Bennie will back down unless he wants a Thai style election to replace him.

I think a few key generals will just quietly tell him to get out.

Follow the money. Nettanyahoo is what happens when middle of the road democracy fails the people. Israel is only the beginning of coalition failure.

Latching on to the lunatic fringe is what happens when politicians sell their souls to the devil. Follow the money.

JerusalemCNN —
Embattled Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was forced to back down on controversial plans to overhaul the country’s judiciary on Monday, amid widespread strikes and protests as well as mounting international pressure.
On a momentous day for Israel, Netanyahu said he would delay votes on the remaining legislation until after the Knesset’s Passover recess in April “to give time for a real chance for a real debate.” In a televised address, Netanyahu said that he was “aware of the tensions” and is “listening to the people.”
“Out of the responsibility to the nation, I decided to delay … the vote, in order to give time for discussion,” he added.
But Netanyahu indicated that the pause was only temporary. He insisted that the overhaul was necessary, and reiterated criticism of refusal to train or serve in the military in protest at the planned changes. “Refusing is the end of our country,” he said.

Even a temporary lull in such proceedings will give Netanyahoo the chance to take a deep breath, and ignore the insane goading of his crazy wife and son. Hopefully!
