Netanyahu slams High Court for allowing leftist protest while restricting attendance at the Kosel
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu joined the clamor of coalition and rabbinical protest against the High Court of Justice for allowing a 600-strong anti-war protest in Tel Aviv last night, while attendance at the Kosel is limited to a few dozen participants.
Netanyahu criticized the court-ordered departure from Home Front Command wartime security and safety restrictions for a “leftist” rally, while attendance at the Kosel remains subject to Home Front constraints.
“Freedom of protest is important, but freedom of prayer is no less important. During wartime, the only authority determining security arrangements is the Home Front Command,” Netanyahu wrote on X.
