The People of Israel Will Make It Through the Judicial Reform Crisis

(Israel Hayom) Meir Ben Shabbat - The People of Israel are a nation captive to its history. Everything we believe we are making new has, in fact, already happened throughout our nation's existence. Our history books describe bitter wars between tribes and kingdoms, Pharisees and Sadducees, Karaites and Rabbis, Hasidim and Misnagdim, and the Zealots and moderate leaders. The scars of these fights are borne by our nation's body and have harmed its soul. And after all this - the People of Israel live. One of our most prominent startups is using conflict as a lever for society's advancement. Thanks to the characteristics instilled in us from the dawn of our existence as a nation and throughout history, we knew how to use conflict to unite us. Passover seats us all together at the table, returns us to our past, and obligates us to remember and recount our journey so far. No less important is that Passover renews our optimism and hope. We made it past Pharaoh. We made it through crises, conflicts, and separations. We will make it through this too.
