Minister of Heritage, Amichai Eliyahu, appeared on a morning show on Network 13 to discuss the possibility of the Supreme Court rejecting the reasonableness law. The opposition has issued threats in response to this potential rejection. Avi Maoz, in particular, stated that the High Court would go after the government’s head, potentially leading to a constitutional crisis.
During the interview, Minister Eliyahu was asked if he would comply with the Supreme Court’s decision to disqualify the reasonableness law. In his response, he questioned who has the authority to make laws and raised concerns about whether the court is subject to the law or if it can act as it pleases.
Minister Eliyahu emphasized the importance of holding judges accountable if they violate the law, suggesting that they should be imprisoned for such actions. He argued that this raises significant questions about the role of the court and its adherence to the law.
It remains to be seen how the Supreme Court will rule on the reasonableness law and what implications it may have for the government and the country as a whole. The video of the interview can be found via the embedded Twitter post.
