Judicial Reform Opponents Cross Red Line by Bringing Dispute to U.S.
(JNS) David Isaac - Dan Diker, president of the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs, told JNS, "When Israeli protesters, who absolutely have the democratic right to protest in their own domestic milieu, export those protests against the Israeli government outside of Israel to the UN and San Francisco, they are actually undermining not only the government but, in international eyes, the very legitimacy of the country they claim to be saving." "They are unwittingly converging with Israel's worst enemies." When protesters say Israel is an "undemocratic," "fascist" and "apartheid" state, they are providing ammunition to Israel's adversaries. "In a world in which cellphones and selfies determine policy, the pyrotechnics of this are very dangerous."
