These "artists" are not out to save democracy, but to destroy it. Did they protest when the government bribed Shas and then MK Goldfarb to pass the Oslo accords? Did they protest when Sharon was extorted (according to Yossi Sarid) to commit a crime against humanity and ethnically cleanse 10000 Jews from their homes? The proposed laws are all based on similar laws in the most democratic governments to prevent such crimes from ever recurring. In fact, the proposed legislation is not "anti democratic" but the last chance to save Israeli democracy.

Lunatic Fraternity. "Nonluminatti" comes to mind....

Democracy is tied to national independance and is destroyed by definition when outsiders intervene What is it that leftists and dumbos fail to understand this

who choose to give themselves other titles

Is it democratic to impose the rights of 50.000 people over seven million? Maybe they don't like it, but one of the problems with democracy is that it represents the people and not snobish elites.

this is so totally upside down (hafook)...it's nuts.. the things that are being proposed in law are to PROTECT democracy NOT destroy it. But it is to address the imbalance of the courts which does not in any way represent the will of the people. It is only democracy if the extreme left has control????

understanding and courage or israeli democracy is lost. typical leftist crying. you lost the election, the support of the people, you speak for a shrinking demographic and out of self righteousness you want your will imposed on the citizens of israel. what anti-democrats you are!

Anti intellectualism, hatred of minorities, the boogyman of the enemy within controlled by foreign powers, attacks on an independent judiciary, religious triumphalism and a much too cozy relationship of corrupt clerics and cynical politicians, an ascendent politician whose party is all about the hatred of the "other". The symptoms are there, the disease cannot be far behind.

from the unwashed masses. How democratic of them...

The 5th columnist NGOs funded by the foreign governments do not constitute a democratic expression of the Israeli people.

Definitely hate glasnost. Is it undemocratic whistleblowing to reveal that Israel bashing NGOs are funded by antisemitic groups or arab secret services? Our éartists", in the meantime, consider Vanunu as a hero, as he endangered national security.

As history shows iit is the Left who destroys democracy and complains when it does not go their way. As for these protesters they should go and find a proper job and do an honest days work for once.

The only awards or recognition these hypocrites deserve is for lying out of both sides of their mouths. They had zero concerns during the expulsion of thousands of people from their homes in Gush Katiff and the real harm to their human rights. All of sudden the majority doesn't count?

The pack of far left "intellectuals" who signed this petition don't understand the first thing about democracy. Democracy means majority rule. The vast majority of Israeli voters consistently elect a centre right government. That is what Israel must have. Far left minority rule, against the wishes of the vast majority of Israelis, is the opposite of democracy.

These people have not a job or occupation, seems that are proffesional complainer which stem from dully understanding of Am Israel aspiration. SLOGANS /SLOGANS / BLINDNESS.

Wow, that's not a minority, its an minimaliority and the signitories are the usual leftist suspects. The freedom fighters of the State the guardian angels of Democracy.

Judging from the talkbacks there may be a booming market in selling brown shirts

of your devilish evilness! Am Yisrael Chai!

Maybe they heard about Aleph-Bet, but this "letter" definitively smells like left-to-right writing.

Bibi is finally going to destroy the "democracy" these hellenists love so much=unlimited funds on restriction=only used for anti israel anything. yasher koach

A shirt whichever color you like : red, yellow, pink, white, black, a rainbow one - any that fits you. But for pants, you'll surely find it handy to wear brown.

These leftists use the word democracy to further their socialist-communist agenda. They are as democratic as Egypt and Syria are. What a joke but I am not laughing.
