| 2023-07-11 |
To modernize the traditional saying a bit: The train to Hell rides rails greased with good intentions. See more here and here. [IsraelTimes] Ahead of his upcoming departure from the post, US Ambassador to Israel Tom Nides says the Biden administration is working to prevent Israel from "going off the rails" as a result of the government’s judicial overhaul push.Yes, the Biden administration has indeed been doing its bit to slow down that process, not to mention drive the Israeli right out of power and Bibi Netanyahu out of politics. "I think most Israelis want the United States to be in their business," Nides tells the Wall Street Journal. "With that sometimes comes a modicum of a price, which is articulating when we think things are going off the rails."Nides adds that he’s told Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu "to tap the brakes, slow down" in order to build consensus for the measures, warning against "rushing things through that ultimately could have huge implications, at least perception-wise, about what makes Israel great."
