On the Ground from Israel with Eetta Prince Gibson and Sarah Breger

Over the last several months, hundreds of thousands of Israelis have taken to the streets to protest Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s plan to overhaul the country’s judicial system. After a day filled with strikes throughout the country on Sunday, Netanyahu announced that the government would pause discussing these reforms. Join Moment Israel Editor Eetta Prince-Gibson for a bird’s eye view of the situation: why were these reforms brought up in the first place and why are so many Israelis against it? What does this pause in talks by the government really mean? What are the implications for U.S. – Israel relations and the future of Israel as a democracy? In conversation with Moment Editor Sarah Breger.
