A “civil” rages on a state level in Israel as the country’s president Isaac Herzog (to the right in the light) warned Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the government not even considering defense of the Supreme Court’s rulings, in an indirect reference to the recent ruling that found incompatible with the dismissal of Sin Betan.

“I warn that no one should think of Neither the judgments of the courts nor the directions of the law ‘, Hertzog said according to the Times of Israel.

“In the Jewish and Democratic State of Israel, the rule of law is not a recommendation but an existential principle. Anyone who discusses at least the possibility of violating the law and court rulings harm not only the cohesion of our people and Israeli democracy, but also the Israeli state status and sovereignty. “

The Supreme Court ruled on Wednesday that Netanyahu had a conflict of interest in the dismissal of Sin Beth’s head, Ronen Bar, and the Public Prosecutor told the Prime Minister shortly afterwards that the ruling meant that he could not appoint a new leader.

Nevertheless, Netanyahu ignored the prosecutorand announced that he had chosen the Lieutenant General of Israeli Defense Forces David Zini to take over the position, from which the bar will leave on June 15.

Several ministers of the Council of Ministers, including Justice Minister Yarve Levin, Communications Minister Slomo Carchi and Finance Minister Bezalel Smotric, or encouraged Netanyahu to ignore the Supreme Court’s ruling or his choice.
