Each democracy consists of three authorities - legislative, executive and judicial. Their balance ensures their existence. Yet, because of our system of government, there is no real separation between the executive and the legislative authorities. Due to the coalition majority in the government controlling Knesset and according to planned reformation, the coalition will be able to appoint judges, controlling the judiciary authority. This thus means ruling the three authorities and absence of democracy.

The Public Prosecutor's Office needs to be reformed at least as much as the court. A reform must be carried out in the system, but logically. So, there is no need to work arbitrarily or maliciously.

Many Likudians still live the role of victims, despite being in ruling positions for decades. The centers of power, such as the judiciary, the Academy and the media, remained out of scope for them. Who prevented Likud from changing the situation over its decades of rule? We are a governing party and we have to act as homeowners, not as those who have not been selected in the club and now want to burn it down. Many Likud members understand that the straight road should be repaired. So, tension and polarization in the state are dangerous.

Responsibility is divided between all of us, but the prime minister, by virtue of hiss position, has a special responsibility to quench the flame. So, everything is solvable. Differences are not too great. we are all brothers and we are not in the sphere of civil war. Calm down.
