Saturday, tens of thousands marched in Tel Aviv for the 15th consecutive week to protest the Israeli Occupation's rime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's proposal to overhaul the justice system, even after he paused the process for a month.

Director General of J Street Nadav Tamir said: "I am worried that the ones governing our country don't care about the rights of the minorities, the rights of the people, they care only about their own interest, whether it is occupying the Palestinians, or religious coercion, or discrimination against Arabs. This is why the liberal people need to fight. The protests are making a difference, we can feel it."

A psychiatrist, originally from Mexico, Karen Baron said: "I renewed my second passport because I am very, very scared. But I have mixed feelings. I immigrated here because I am Jewish and I wanted to live here, I don't want to get to a point where I will have to leave."
