the, the it's the most consequential shakeup of israel's court system since the country's foundation lawmakers have approved a key part of a controversial overhaul of the judiciary. a bill preventing judges from striking down government decisions if they consider them unreasonable after the vote was boycotted by the entire opposition. prime minister benjamin netanyahu called his decision to press the head a necessary democratic step that would benefit the majority of israel's citizens. but many of those citizens viewing differently the passing of the bill defy 6 months of protests, a nation wide outrage against what critics regard as a power grab by not. yeah, it was hard right coalition. and today, again, thousands took to the streets to make their anger and fears heard. opponents of the

live already announced bill appeal against it. at the very supreme court, the government is seeking to weekend on the call for lucian, berlin, and this is the day the i am a 100 percent in favor of the additional reform. i mean, my country needs and we feel that it's, it's not a good legislation refill that, that are not good intentions behind it in show see, but there's no reason to be ready of this amendments. and there are many reasons to see it as an important step in restoring balance between the powers of states and the respecting the vote as well. there is no prime minister in his real netanyahu has become a puppet on the strings of messianic extremists. the

also on the day spain to faces an on certain political future after inconclusive elections, but the series of the far right and joining the government are averted for now for pollsters. predictions fail to materialize. you'll get an idea of, i don't think that anyone expected this results, but that is the results that reflect his band had decided that if i knew it, which is very fragmented and multifaceted would be, there aren't lot of solar not anymore. nope. welcome to the show. these early parliament has approved a law limiting the supreme court's ability to overrule government decisions until today, the reasonableness clause allowed judges to block policies or appointments deemed not in the public interest. under the new law, the government will be able to hire and fire public servants without judicial oversight. the bills approval comes to spite months of protests that have divided

the nation as one of the nice turbulent moments in israel, 75 year history, soundtracks by chance of boucher, the hebrew word for shame from opposition, policies. the legislation that divided the nation ultimately pos may 64 votes in favor. i'm saying that against with opposition parties will come out to the commit set and board gotten the vague talk in the last ditch effort to secure the compromise by the countries president ended without success. the coalition government size, the changes are necessary to prevent overreach by the quotes, uninsured, more equal power balance, the slit. it's definitely an unusual moment. assuming we've taken the 1st step in the historic process to correct that you additional system and restore powers which were taken from the government and the conductor over many years to get home. i

mean, shallow documents, glow is suddenly mobile cool. combination parties inside the connect that celebrated group hugs, and se, as the police use water cannons and deployed offices on horseback to dispatch 7 states as it was described as a day of destruction at the temple by opposition. lead. yeah, yeah. allow pete this stream. government is hugging and posing to celebrate the moment they made it so that we are no longer brotherly people. celebrating the moment they manage to throw into the dustbin of history. everything that connects us the there is no prime minister in israel that yahoo has become a puppet on a string of mussel. you had extreme us since the draft legislation was introduced in january, it is divided as well and triggered one of the largest protest movements in the country's history. for 29 consecutive weeks,

tens of thousands of israelis took to the streets a ton of eve and other cities. many came to demonstrate against the plans changes by netanyahu and his coalition. they argued you have a whole the on demand democracy and remove checks and balances. we're here to protect our democracy. we were left with no choice. that's to go to the disobedience and, and non violent disobedience. and we're here to protect our democracy, right by the body with protest showing no signs of letting up opponents of the new law a considering the next news a lot to on rap. and let's do that with golf labor. he's the correspondence for the wall street journal interest loomed of good to have you on the show. now this law cancels the reasonableness clause. what does that mean for israel system of checks and balances? okay, so what this uh, what this is about really is about the ability of the cord to i

disagree. uh, i have supervision and the type of supervision over government decisions that the government administers just to make sure that when they make decisions for a policy that they're considering all of the relevant factors. okay. and they can use this ability to judge whether something is unreasonable and extreme to negate a decision by the government or ministers. so for example, a recent example was they tried to appoint someone to be the interior administered, the health minister and, and a finance base, or someone who was convicted on corruption charges. and even recently on tax evasion. so the supreme court to some of the justices saw that as a reasonable mainstream, and this person was unable to take those positions the and the government. and so very much wants this person to take this position is a key ally of benjamin antonio, the prime minister. so this is just an example of how this is used by the court.

yeah. so what can we, the immediate, legal and legislative repercussions of this? i'm assuming the government will try to bring these people that were previously blocked on board. am i correct in that assumption? well, we do tend to leave this person. we're speaking, everything is already there. it is a key ultra orthodox, the leader of the country. he's been many is really government's before we, he's was likely, uh, we'll come back. yeah. if this, if this law passes all the legal hurdles that it still has potentially, with the supreme court as well as outside of that, it's not exactly clear at what they're paving the way for a can't really predict, you know, some would like to speculate maybe the try to replace the attorney general who overseas benjamin to to knows trial, which could maybe get him a bit of the bargain. but this is speculation. and then we don't really know how,

how they will operate once this a reasonable this standard is removed from the judges. at arsenal, really a bit beyond what you just mentioned. could this have any repercussions on the prime minister's corruption try or as i said it, it could in terms of, you know, removing certain justice officials who are in charge of the overseeing that trial. again, the private instruments and you know, he denies that they will do anything like this. uh but i cannot. um, i cannot say how this will play out really. all right, and you did recently interviewed the prime minister. what did he tell you about his plans to overhaul the judiciary to well, i number of things like the prime ministers narrative here is that when they 1st tried to pass this traditional overall, it was basically a package of all these contentious laws in one, in one shot and that was in late march, but there was

a real national uprising against a national strike. and the prime minister backed away and opened up a dialogue with the opposition to try to find compromise. now, the prime minister's narrative is that those taught to the obvious and failed because the opposition is really interested in a compromise and that he will actually do the compromise himself. he will water down and are moderate this legislation himself, although this bill that was past the day was not moderated. but he says that he's working himself to make this a more palatable set of least legislation. and for the other side of the spectrum, the political spectrum that includes, for example, one of the most contentious laws of the original package was the ability of the, of the coalition to override decisions that the supreme court. and that's in, you know, said in the, in the interview with us that he had thrown that out. now his coalition partners say that that's true and that it might come back to just kind of a different version. but he's saying that he will try to moderate this legislation

himself. the people who are out on the streets to day as we speak and have been taken to the streets for the past months. obviously, don't believe him. so how big of challenge can the civil uprising this unprecedented mobilization become for that and you know, and it's coalition as well as the industry purchased are tricky because, you know, they can show a will or opposition of many people in the country, but they cannot force a government or closing to do anything that has the majority. there are few things that can force that, but there are some things in the work that could force the governments hand. for example, another national strength by the labor union which can paralyze the economy. this is a one way that could really put some serious pressure on the government, or what we're seeing now is it protest by reserve is in the military's received. it

will no longer show up for duty. and if that continues, if that trend continues and if we see actually play out in manifests in the reality in, in the military, that can be a serious challenge to the government. because a senior security officials are saying that even the military chief of staff is saying that this is causing a real problem or can cause a real problem for the military. so there's a certain levers of a bits of, of leverage and of the protest moving could have on the government has done labor hayes and correspondence for the wall street journal and joins us tonight from jerusalem. thank you so much for your analysis. sure, thanks for having me. the, the spain to appear, sat for a time of uncertainty after returns from sunday's election left a rather chaotic political picture and no party with enough boats to form a government. most voters back to main center rights and center left parties, but neither received

a clear mandate. the country now faces messy coalition talks and potentially a new boat. if no majority is found. spain has spoken says i'll bear to new news fate who as election results are announced just center ride popular parties, celebrating winning the most votes. but that's not enough for the popular party to form a government on its own. even if they partner with the far right party boxed, they would still need to get other parties on board the but do as the candidate of the party that has the most votes already. and i think that my duty is to open the dialogue, so i can leave this dialogue from the 1st minute and i and to try and govern our country, little body, accepting or victory, and the electro. our results will now be $30.00, but nobody seems willing to team up with his party and the far right and the tears

that the rival socialist camp are just as loud the socialist prime minister pedro sanchez also declared a victory for the left. the results means that he could claim to power through a jigsaw of alliances. but he would need all of the left wing parties and cut along parties to form a new government. spain has been very clear, the spain and all that citizens, to have voted, had been crystal clear, the backward looking block that wanted to roll back all the progress we made over the past 4 years. has failed the sanchez's known as a political survivor and with enough support from his left wing allies. he could very well block the formation of a conservative lead government. the path ahead for new government in spain is

complicated, meaning the country is facing weeks of uncertainty. we cannot speak to it, obviously minnesota is he's a professor at the notice. you can put them in madrid. mr. a few minutes. welcome to the day so bitter, sweet victory for the conservatives of better than expected outcome for the income and socialist prime minister. who is the real winner here? yes, it's a strange election because the winner feels like a loose around the loose or it feels like a winner. purely because of expectations. the conservatives, as you pointed out one, but because they did a lot worse than they had expected. i'm at the poll, said that they would do and because it doesn't seem that they have a past due for me, a government, it seems like the last last night and the increment of prime minister, because he did a lot better than the full was uh, suggestive that he wouldn't because it seems like he has a app even if it is improbable to another term in the office. definitely feels like

a winner, particularly because calling this snap election immediately after suffering a crushing the feet at regional collections only 2 months ago was a big personal gamble that federal scientist took. and it definitely seems like a paid off. now, will anyone be able to form a government or are we looking at the inevitable prospect already of new elections at the end of the year as well, it's worth finding out that the only reason why we are speculating about the possibility of rerun of the election is because the 2 major parties continued to refuse to work with one another, refused to even entertain the possibility of a great coalition between the conservatives and the social democrats. so if that continues to be the case, and it seems like it will, it seems like the only candidates who has a possibility of forming a government this federal center of the social democrats. but that will depend not

only on the support of the far left and of the capital one and bask separate this parties web supported. and in this past 4 years, but also the support of the one capital and separate this party that refused to. busy operate with him in the past legislature and as the party led by a godless puts them onto the course. these former capitalized leader and the main driver for the attempt at independence in 2017. that's the more hard to write catalogue nationalist or separate. there's a party and it remains an open question whether subject can convince them or offer him enough in order to achieve his support in order to get another term in office. now, we're talking about all the parties in the mix except for the one that everybody was talking about before the election, which is the far right box party. where this the selection result leave them or

for them as a very bad elections for bucks for 2 reasons. one, the party itself, the very uh for the uh, the one from 50 to members of parliament to 33. so they are clearly out of downward trajectory. but also a nice thing more significantly. it's been proven that the biggest, mobilize for, for the left in spain has been books signed to continually hammer during the campaign. the idea that voting for the conservatives was voting for a government with books and that mobilized the spanish less and also alienated a love centrist, the voters that might have supported the conservatives otherwise. so a lot of people that would like to see a different government in spain who reject a lot of the policies or the alliances, or the social democrats have displayed in the past 4 years. are now seeing box as a big problem and a big obstacle to achieving a political change in the country. mm hm. i want to touch on something that you

mentioned before, which is the prospect of a, of a great coalition. you know, the length of which we've seen here in germany, for example. it has become clear that most spaniards one to see a central government either on the right of center or left of center. so why not just join forces between the p, p and the facade and represent the majority here? that's an excellent question and it's something that a lot of us struggle with the recurring argument or the explanation that is given is that that type of alliance would give rise to more radical parties on the extremes. but it's been very clear over the past few years that radical parties have their own anyway in the front of that. and in the far right, it is very clear though business on just from the very beginning, his whole political program was built around rejecting the possibility of any type of work in our working relationship with the conservatives. i'm purely trying to form majorities with the far left and with the nationalist. so as long as the

federal sensitive remains, the leader of the socialist party is inconceivable that the socialists would be willing to cooperate with the conservatives. where's the current leadership of the conservatives? i believe would be a lot more willing to carry out that type of uh, cooperation and stacy minnesota. as of that, when i say that comes with them, say in madrid, thank you so much for your time. thank you. or that is making to animal. it's a different color scheme, it's really going to have a totally different appeal. and i think that's throwing the baby out with the bathwater. yeah. and it losing a lots of ultimate, a lot of credibility to, to the, has built up over the last, you know, 1015 years for more than a decade. this guy, the bluebird logo, was synonymous with twitter, representing the twins posted by users all over the world. now the company is saying bye to the birds and the name twitter,

re branding to be known simply as ex, as late as jacob under billionaire eli mosque, who paid $44000000000.00 for the social media joint last october. that's where it is. new identity has, and surprisingly, been trending on the platform since it was unveiled on sunday. the company says it's part of a strategy to transform into an every thing app which combines video chat, messaging streaming, and payments. take a closer look with 11 on monday, and that's certainly a media policy analyst base and let him know join us tonight from italy. welcome to the w. now we all woke up this morning with another x in our lives. what's this all about? thanks for for the invitation festival, and yes, we did wake up with quite a quite a big change and this is ultimately the continuation of, of the trip to saga. what we're seeing now is to some extent, a corporate may call the right, but it's one of the latest changes that might,

even mazda abruptly advance, since it took over twist to. and i think what it is all about. it is an asset, and i think it could be framed within the multiple assets. that even mosque has tried to address the economic, political, and financial difficulty that the company has been having as well as the rise of oh, can you competitors? i think we could frame this complete make over and re branding with the attempts to they've been doing to read them. so platforms strip address just on one hand, competition of new entries in the marketplace, such as threats, which is the newly launched app by mesa, which closely reassembled twitter, what used to be towards it, but also the ongoing financial issues that the company has been facing. and they tried a lot, and i think this rebranding seems to be almost the last resource for the company combined with potentially the rather aggressive expansion strategy, not the sector. but twitter is one of the most established brands in the social

media universe. why kill it? and why not re brand in a different fashion? why did they go down this path? it's a, it's a big, it's a big question, right? so i'm, i'm not in the head of the, of the seo or, or a mosque. the certainly i think this is part of the of a bigger and broder plan, you know, when it's not just a decision that was taken by day, it was, of course announced a bit of a sudden, but i think it should be noted that it did not come completely out of the blue, as there was back out by number of to another. it's actually already when a mazda 2 coverage with today. nope, till the 2022 east flat said one in one of the suites that buying twitter was an accelerate attempts to create x this everything out. so it could have been applying all along to some extent that using switzer and a stablish user base. and this published brand was maybe the start of, of

a big ambrosia or app that could expand another sector at the same time. um, why pills, something that is actually very successful and it has a, a unique brand and a unique offer. it is something that still causal, not only me, but a number of research or a number of uses out there. as you mentioned in the beginning, the reactions all over the internet. it's been so surprised us in a way to show happens with eat unless this is it's doesn't it? um i want to take a closer look at this everything because the twitter c o or x c o lender. yeah. kirby knows that they will go even further to transform the global town square. they're presumably seeking to break into sectors like banking for example. is there a market need for that? i think that's a very good question. and linda, yeah, carino is, as you mentioned when they announced to the loan, the loan to mex,

trying to sort of a flag and mention with this new everything app. my, my go and in my go into sort of audio video messaging, payment, and banking. and this idea of the time square, i think has very much evolved from what twitter used to be the public square into more of a global marketplace for, for everything. whether there was a market or a need for it. i think it's questionable to some extent, certainly we are now living in a world of apps, mobile application now part of our lives, of our society. so they have a great influence on what we do, how we behave, the services and product that we offer. so strategically, from a business perspective, i think there is certainly an interesting space explored, but there are also a number of concerns and it's also something not completely new, right? it has been tested in a very different uh space in a different country. but i don't know whether users actually need another app for everything. yeah, we could question that as a decision. we have to leave it there,

but i do want to tell our viewers that of course, uh, that example that you were citing is we chat in china, which is widely used by the chinese government, as by honest citizens. i was a, oh no, i'm ready. i'm a 30 thank you so much. finally, the past weekend saw the premier of to of hollywood most eagerly awaited movies of the year and on the surface at least they couldn't have been more different. although some people who went to see both argue that underneath it all, there are some parallels but competing for audiences. barbie, a great a girl weeks take on the world's most famous stall, came in on top at the box office, generating some 337000000 dollars. and ticket sales are competition oppenheimer about the scientist who helped develop the atomic bomb, brought in about half as much coinciding release as known together as far been hymer alert. a record number of movie goers back into the cinema following the downturn during the pen demik. well, she's everything,
