Shimon Shetreet: Israeli government wants to change judiciary to give prime minister 'total power'
This week on The Jerusalem Post Podcast, Eve Young and Eliav Breuer talk about US President Donald Trump's tariff rollercoaster, Prime Minster Benjamin Netanyahu's visits to Hungary and the US, the High Court of Justice's injunction on the firing Shin Bet chief Ronen Bar, and a looming potential constitutional crisis with the return of the judicial reform.
In the second part, Tamar Uriel-Beeri interviews Prof. Shimon Shetreet, a legal expert who was a minister in Yitzhak Rabin's government, to expand on the issues and divisiveness of the judicial reform (or "revolution," as he refers to it), and the socio-political implications it has for Israel.
