Passing motorists stop to heckle protesters on their way to the Knesset.

“Go home, no one wants you!,” shouts a motorcyclist, while a taxi driver takes advantage of a red light to call the protesters, many of them traveling in from outside of Jerusalem, “human garbage.”

Tens of thousands of people are heading toward the Knesset to rally against the government’s contentious judicial overhaul as a Knesset panel gives its approval to the first stage of the sweeping changes.
