Was Israel’s judicial reform really stopped or did Israel change far more than most people realize?I spoke with Prof. Moshe Koppel, chairman of the Kohelet Policy Forum, one of the most influential intellectual forces behind Israel’s conservative policy movement, for a fascinating conversation about what actually happened to judicial reform and what comes next.The massive protest movement attempted to stop the reform process. Then the October 7 massacre and the ensuing war transformed Israel’s national agenda.But the story did not end there.Moshe Koppel explains what was actually accomplished, what institutional and political changes have already taken place, what remains unfinished, and why Israel’s upcoming elections could be critical for the future balance between the elected government, the judiciary and the legal establishment.We also discuss the deeper political changes taking place within Israeli society and the growing importance of national conservatism not only in Israel, but throughout the Western world.With another major National Conservatism Conference bringing together thinkers, policymakers and political leaders, what does national conservatism actually mean? Why is it gaining strength? And what can Israel contribute to a broader movement emphasizing national sovereignty, tradition, democratic accountability and Western civilization?This conversation goes far beyond one judicial reform bill.It is about who governs Israel, how Israeli democracy should function, what Israelis will be voting for in the upcoming elections, and what kind of Jewish state we leave to the next generation.Watch this important conversation with Moshe Koppel and share it with anyone who wants to understand where Israel is heading.Join Our Whatsapp Channel: https://chat.whatsapp.com/GkavRznXy731nxxRyptCMv
