5. The nightmare is coming and people are blind
The founding fathers of Israel built a strong democracy. The right is leading Israel to a nightmare, a state where a majority's power has no limit. This is the beginning of the end for democracy. Just imagine a majority in a European Country would decide to put a Yellow Star of David on Jews - in this case only the law could forbid the majority to do that. In Israel, if the override power bill is adopted, the majority could do so with any minority - and limit freedom for gays, atheists, secular Jews, leftists, newspapers, artists, and at the end everybody... If you think this law is not about you, you're wrong.
