After firing Gallant and Ronen Bar, Netanyahu now wants to get rid of the attorney general. Is Israel on the path to a dictatorship?
In a "normal" democracy, the government is controlled and constrained by independent institutions (intelligence agencies, police, courts, etc.) which ensure that the government acts in the country's interest and that abuses of power are restricted and prosecuted. But these institutions cannot fulfill this task if the government staffs them with puppets.
Suppose the government has been infiltrated by another country (for example Qatar) and is secretly working against Israel or at least harming the country's interests on behalf of another country. How can one stop this traitorous government if it controls all the institutions whose job it would be to uncover and prosecute this treason?
What is your view of the situation?
