Prominent right-wing journalist slams Netanyahu, judge selection proposal
Amit Segal, a well-known right-wing journalist, slammed Prime Minister Netanyahu and the latest coalition proposal to reform the Judge Selection Committee
Segal titled his explosive weekly column in the Yedioth Ahronoth newspaper: "Slam the table already, Mr. Prime Minister."
He accused Netanyahu of weakness vis-à-vis Justice Minister Yariv Levin, saying that the prime minister let Levin control the situation and is getting “dragged around” by him.
The journalist also criticized the latest proposal to split the Judge Selection Committee between the coalition and the opposition.
Segal called the idea "half-baked and completely rotten," adding that only the most extreme judges from both sides would get elected.
