Netanyahu and Biden clash over Israel's judicial overhaul.

TL;DR Summary
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has rejected US President Joe Biden's call to abandon a proposed judicial overhaul that has sparked massive protests across Israel. Netanyahu delayed the proposal on Monday after large numbers of people took to the streets. Biden had urged Netanyahu to seek a compromise, but later said he hoped the Israeli leader would "walk away" from the plan. Netanyahu responded that he does not make decisions based on pressure from abroad. The proposed changes have been criticised as a neutering of judges' power to hold the government to account.
