According to the source, the soldiers sent a letter last night to Defense Minister Yoav Galant to express their rejection of the proposal of the ultra-right-wing government of Benjanin Netanyahu, which has provoked a wave of protests since the beginning of the year.

The protesters warned that “in recent months, the contract between the state and the citizen, based on the Declaration of Independence, has been violated again and again” by the Executive. We are fighting for Israel’s image, and we will defend the judiciary, they wrote.

Last night, tens of thousands of demonstrators took to the streets for the umpteenth time to reject the bill, which would restrict the Supreme Court’s ability to reject laws by allowing Parliament to re-legislate regulations challenged by that body.

The plan would also allow the extreme right-wing Executive to control the appointment of magistrates.

As part of the protest, thousands of people gathered in front of Galant’s house, who in the past has publicly criticized the initiative.

The initiative provoked a political earthquake in this nation and a growing unease in the Armed Forces.

Last week, more than 100 Air Force (IAF) reservists announced their refusal to serve if any part of the plan is approved.
