This is a controversy involving Jewish citizens of Israel. They could not care about the Palestinians and your unending concern about their welfare means nothing. Please get off your soapbox !

Hello moron - 25% of Israeli citizens in the state of Israel are non-Jews - 21% of which are Arab, the rest Druze, Christian, etc. This does not include anyone in the OPT.
So 1 out of 4 citizens in Israel are explicitly and systematically discriminated against via Knesset laws and govt institutional practices when it comes to land, infrastructure, planning, education, healthcare, and industry resources and much more.
This judicial reform does affect these 25% of Israel citizens that do not have full citizenship or equal rights and the Supreme Court could make things worse for them because unfortunately none of the Basic Laws have a part that enshrines equality for all regardless of race, sex, religion, ethnicity, etc. Israel doesn’t have that and there for Supreme Court rulings with right wing judges could get even worse for the 25% ethnic minority population.
I’m tired of ignorant pro-Israeli commenters who thinks all citizens of Israel have equal rights… that is total bullshit they do not and never did. There is a two-class society in Israel where Jews are lavished with every resource first and little proportionally goes to non-Jews. And this doesn’t even cover the societal racism and discrimination non-Jews experience in public and at the workplace.
