Aryeh speaks with his cousin Ora Peled Nakash about the growing Israeli protest movement, which was sparked by Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu's move to limit the independence of Israel's judicial system. Ora explains why she was personally motivated to join the protests and to give a speech at the first large rally in Tel Aviv. They discuss how Israeli politics reached this perilous point, the many reasons why Netanyahu wants to disempower the Supreme Court, and how these efforts could damage Israel's tech industry—or even lead to a global crisis.
