  1. What is controversial about preventing unelected “Judges” overturning the democcratic will of the people on their whims!

  2. The man is a lier, he says someone in English and a different thing in Hebrew and he ruins the democratic state of Israel, society and military force. Lier and a criminal, shouldn't run this country

  3. We did it!..wait if it was that easy it would have been done? The devil is a Liar

  4. There is no difference between him and hitler in the way he acts

  5. This is a straight up power grab

  6. Netanyahu always puts himself before Israel, he wants to become a tyrant

  7. Dictator and well known liar

  8. The Judiciary has ascended to God level in many countries as if judicial office bearers are not politically inclined, worse, falable humans.

  9. So just so i follow this logic, when we ended the apartheid in South Africa we were committing genocide on the whites

  10. “Nine eleven was good for israhell” – bb

  11. He is destroying democracy to cover up his corruption!

  12. The court cases against Bibi will soon be thrown out of court. The judges in the case see that the opposition testimony is too flimsy to warrant any serious concern against Bibi. The mighty Israeli shekel is making a comeback from a day ago of 3.70 Shekels to 1 USD to 3.64 Shekels to 1 USD. That is contrary to all Israeli haters out there. Way to go Israel!!!!!!!

  13. After the execution of the court coup—-this defendant will appoint his own judges who will acquit him !

  14. BB is doing as the American Govt instructs him to do, which is to build an Apartheid state in Israel.

  15. He better watch out if he wants to continue all that Christian tourism

  16. This journalist is so biased and so tendentious that this interview is only saved by Bibi for to get to know anything at all. What a lousy clown journalist

  17. Probably one of the racist country i the world.

  18. The BS”@er of bull&@“ers‼️

  19. He should of ask harder questions

  20. Give a chance to new reform for trying 5 years if doesn't work then renogatiate

  21. No democracy in israel.

  22. Shame to the state of Israel. Taken hostage by this terrible man
