The Israeli protests against Netanyahu's proposed judicial overhaul looks to be a seminal event. Wouldn't surprise me if the proposal peters out and Netanyahu loses the next election.
Don't live there and don't really know if the judiciary has too much power (as claimed by Netanyahu). CNN had an article documenting the differences between Israeli and US judiciary but still don't think it was enough to truly understand who is in the right.
Probably, like most things, there is some truth from both sides.
Regardless, I am suspicious of Netanyahu and so I'd lean towards this proposal being more bad than good. But ultimately, sounds like a constitutional amendment equivalent to decide and not just the party in power.
