Israeli Protests and Turmoil Over Netanyahu's Judicial Reforms

TL;DR Summary
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has paused his plans to overhaul the country's judiciary, which would have given him and his allies the final say in appointing the nation's judges. The move sparked months of protests, culminating in a general strike on Monday. While the pause has been welcomed by many, experts warn that the fight for Israel's future may only be beginning. The US played a role in persuading Netanyahu to pause the plans, and there are now calls for him to be disinvited from a virtual summit meeting of the world's democracies.
