An Israeli district court judge recently announced his retirement from the judicial system after expressing harsh criticism regarding the conduct of the President of the Supreme Court, Yitzchak Amit, Arutz Sheva reported on Wednesday.
According to the report, the judge sent his resignation notice to Amit and Justice Minister Yariv Levin.
The report quoted sources familiar with the matter who said that the judge chose to resign as a sign of protest against the conduct of the judicial system in the recent period.
“Following the conduct of President Amit, who forcibly seized the presidential seat and the conduct of the judicial system in general, the judge announced his retirement,” they said.
Amit was elected as president of the court after Baharav-Miara bullied the judicial system into electing him by prohibiting the Judicial Selection Committee from investigating multiple serious allegations against him.

We hope to Hashem that the קליפה of the Bagatz & co. will eventually self-destruct, and when that happens the different elements of Israeli society will have an easier time finding a way to work together, without being forced apart.
If only more follow suit and destroy this wicked unabashed blasphemous body of insult.
This judge (sic) and his group are so far away from representing Israeli society that their control of the judicial branch smacks of dictatorship. A foreign body and culture is controlling a population that is not their own people. Even the chilonim are not so extreme left as those judges who try to rule by their personal views, not law. This juducial body is patently trying to be the prime minister albeit they were not elected. They do not have the confidence and trust of the public. An true juducial body would not issue a ruling after the parties to a case withdrew their claims. Case in point is the prime minister firing Bar. Bar already issued his resignation and Bibi withdrew his firing so why is the bagatz issueing a ruling, just to tell the prime minister that in reality they are the prime minister, unelected at that.
