Israel spirals into unprecendented constitutional crisis as government votes to defy High Court [View all]
Israel was plunged into a constitutional crisis on Sunday after the government unanimously declared it would not honor a High Court of Justice ruling concerning the Second Authority for Television and Radio, the regulator that oversees the country’s commercial television and radio broadcasters.
In an official statement, the government said the court had no authority to override the law. “You have no power to trample the law. A ruling that contradicts the law will not be recognized, and decisions made under it are void,” the statement said.
