Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Justice Yariv Levin:
This is an inherently illegal decision, in which the judicial branch takes control of the Judicial Selection Committee, in explicit contradiction to the provisions of the law.
If any of the judges wish to manage the Judicial Selection Committee and determine its meeting dates, they are welcome to take off their judicial robes, run for the Knesset, try to get elected, and during coalition negotiations demand the Justice Ministry portfolio. That is what the law prescribes, and it applies to the judges themselves as well.
Three judges have, with their own hands, created an unprecedented constitutional crisis, and the full responsibility lies with them.
