Israel’s judiciary system is quite different than America’s. Its Supreme Court, for instance, uses a system of internally appointed “Justices” not bound by checks and balances, who can use the court’s power to overrule the Israeli people’s say in their own government … and it is creating a massive crisis.

Look at these so-called rules of law established by Israel’s runaway, activist court:

The Knesset cannot remove judges — only fellow judges can do that.

“Unreasonable” government actions are unlawful — and judges alone determine what is unreasonable.

Judges can override military orders — including orders to release terrorists.

In short, Israel’s high court asserts it has final authority over Israel’s duly elected leaders — including the prime minister — on all matters of both law and policy. [Here is one example: Israel’s Supreme Court is now entertaining a suit asking the court to REMOVE Netanyahu from office — to effectively veto the will of Israeli voters!]

And this is even more stunning: Joe Biden’s State Department is FUNDING the Israeli group suing to remove Netanyahu from office! Israeli journalist Caroline Glick says this “far-left” Israeli group, the Movement for Quality Government (MQG), is “at the epicenter of the Israeli left’s war against the Netanyahu government.” In fact, MQG has organized massive protests of judicial reform legislation!

Also leading the protests is the George Soros-funded New Israel Fund (NIF). In a leaked NIF email, the group said its Israeli branch “took part in coordinating and synchronizing the various parties that participated in the show of force” — a curious term for a protest.

And a senior member of Netanyahu’s government told the Times of Israel last month that Team Biden is behind the opposition to judicial reform!

“This protest is financed and organized with millions of dollars,” the government official said. “We are following what is happening. This is a very high-level organization. There is an organized center from which all the demonstrators branch out in an orderly manner.”

He added: “Who finances the transportation, the flags, the stages? It’s clear to us” — implicating, as the Times confirmed, the Biden administration.

Congress MUST investigate! Join me in asking House Republicans to launch a probe into Biden’s meddling in Israeli domestic affairs — and to slash all funding for partisan groups like MQG that seek to undermine and remove Netanyahu and his government.

Please take a moment right now to sign our petition and fax Congress our HANDS OFF ISRAELI DEMOCRACY statement!

Please also prayerfully consider making a generous gift to support Christians in Defense of Israel as we work to bless and defend the Jewish state.
