Criminals On The Bench

Interestingly enough, this post by Obadiah Shoher on Samson Blinded (fast becoming one of my favorite bloggers), goes to the heart of a phenomena that is not just Israeli. In California, the Bench recently also forgot its job description and trampled on the democratic rights of its resident citizens. Most reading this blog surely know what I'm talking about.

In any case, to give you a taste of this short post, here is some of what Shoher posted: "Justice Minister Friedmann’s efforts at reforming the Supreme Court are not the usual bureaucratic squabble but the most important political shift since the right-wing Likud came to power in 1977." ...because despite that shift in 1977 the "leftists continued to rule the country through law enforcement" (courts/police) and media."
