War cabinet observer Gadi Eisenkot said Prime Minister Netanyahu's failure to fully implement the High Court's ruling is a 'declaration of rebellion against the rule of law,' and called on him to instruct the Knesset speaker to hold an immediate revote, as reported by N12.
Gadi Eisenkot, war cabinet observer and former IDF chief of staff, issued a sharp statement Thursday evening criticizing Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu over the government's handling of a High Court ruling. Eisenkot said that failing to fully implement the ruling 'without tricks and gimmicks' is a 'declaration of rebellion against the rule of law.' He called on Netanyahu to instruct Knesset Speaker Amir Ohana to convene the plenum for an immediate revote. The statement, reported by N12, adds to intensifying political pressure on the prime minister over judicial compliance. The Zioneer has previously reported on Eisenkot's ongoing criticism of the government's policies on security and conscription, though this statement directly targets the executive's relationship with the judiciary.
