14th week of protests against the judicial reform

Hi,
It is Passover, and it is the 14th week i a row of protests against the judicial reform that the government led by Bibi, Rothman, and Levin wish to have (I think judicial overhaul more fits here).

After a pick of 445,000 protestors last week (230,000 of them in Tel-Aviv), only 260,000 protested today (145,000 of them in Tel-Aviv). But it was not only Passover that made people stay at home and to go out the the junctions areoun Israel.

Along the week, there were several terror attacks, along with rockets fired from Gaza strip and rockets fired from Lebanon and Syria (the biggest attack since Second Lebanon War, although IAF does attack once in a while).

These are part of a reaction to riots in Al-Aqsa Mousqe in Jerusalem. As often happens during the Ramadan, the Mount of Temple becomes a battle field which can lit the whole country. That what happened two years ago and ended up with operation Guardian of the Walls.

Meanwhile, HaHaretz finally made me understand where the rhythm of Democracy or Rebellion (the protest main slogan) is coming from – it is the guitar rigf at the beginning of the song Seven Nation Army by the White strips
