Gantz: Cabinet meeting is ‘culmination of a fear-mongering campaign’ against police

MK Benny Gantz, leader of the opposition National Unity part, says today’s cabinet meeting was “the culmination of a fear-mongering campaign against law enforcement officials.”

Addressing party members, he adds that “the Netanyahu and Ben Gvir horror show raises the concern that the government is not seeking equal enforcement, but rather bullying enforcement,” against the anti-overhaul protesters.

“The cabinet calling a meeting regarding enforcement in the case of a protest [movement] against it [the government] is an unprecedented act of public corruption,” Gantz says, according to Ynet.

“As soon as the gatekeepers and the judges will be appointed by politicians, as soon as judicial review is curtailed, it is an opening for the government to act without any restraints.”
