Israel’s judicial reform will severely damage the IDF, top defense source says
(Worthy News) – A top defense official has said that anyone who thinks that the IDF will not be harmed by the government’s judicial overhaul policy becoming law without significantly more negotiating and compromise is living in a different era.
“Whoever thinks they can leave the outside of it [ the judicial overhaul debate] in 2023 is living in a world of more than 50 years ago – and even then it was hard,” to keep major public policy debates from distracting the military’s functioning, said the source.
According to the source, the IDF is currently at the proper level of readiness for any security challenges by virtue of a carefully calibrated mix of deterring IDF reservists from striking, while keeping an open dialogue to make officers feel their voices are heard.
