(Worthy News) – Speculation grew Sunday evening that the Histadrut, Israel’s largest labor federation, could announce a general strike after a compromise it had floated in an attempt to end a bitter, divisive national standoff over the government’s planned drastic overhaul of the judiciary was quickly dismissed by the ruling Likud party, anti-government protesters and parts of the opposition.

In a joint statement, Histadrut Chairman Arnon Bar-David and Dov Amitai, head of the Israeli Presidency of Business Organizations, presented an outline of their proposal regarding the coalition’s “reasonableness” bill, which — if passed as is on Monday or Tuesday — would remove courts’ ability to use the doctrine to review politicians’ decisions.

The compromise version was proposed by legal scholars professors Yuval Elbashan and Yedidia Stern and former deputy attorney general Raz Nizri. [ Source: Times of Israel (Read More…) ]
