Is Israeli democracy in danger? A proposed High Court override clause has many concerned about a possible tyranny of the majority. Join us as a diverse set of legal experts discuss with ToI editors what’s currently at stake.
In this seventh episode of our limited series podcast, Noa Sattath, the Executive Director of the Association for Civil Rights in Israel (ACRI), speaks on how minorities have utilized the High Court to broaden their civil rights. She says she is often disappointed by rulings, but staunchly defends the right to seek them.
Sattath spoke at a Times of Israel live-streamed event on December 15 at the IDI in Jerusalem on the topic of judicial reform.
In this episode, which is a session from that event, Times of Israel editor David Horovitz introduces Sattath and asks some follow-up questions.
Future episodes will include remarks from other speakers about specific cases of using a tactic of strategic litigation to broaden human rights.

Bridging the US-Israel divide
While the heart of The Times of Israel’s work takes place in Israel, so many of Jerusalem’s actions are influenced by those in Washington’s halls of power.
As ToI’s US bureau chief, I work to gain access to decision-makers in the United States government so our readers can understand the US-Israel relationship beyond the platitudes evident in public statements.
I'm proud of our ability to inform without sensationalizing, our dedication to be fast while ensuring accuracy, and our determination to present Israel's entire, complex story.
