TL;DR Summary

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said his government will move ahead with plans to change the country's judicial system after talks with opposition parties failed. The proposed overhaul of the judiciary caused mass protests earlier this year, and negotiations aimed at finding a compromise solution were jolted last week over a crisis surrounding the committee responsible for picking the country's judges. Opposition leaders said negotiations were frozen until the committee is formed. Netanyahu put the overhaul on hold in March, but the decision to move ahead is likely to fuel the protest movement that has continued to demonstrate each Saturday.
