These days in Israel we are fighting a critical fight for our democracy, for a future of freedom and equality against an extreme right-wing, clerical and non-liberal government. The Israeli government follows the example of Orban\u2019s regime in promoting a judicial coup that poses an imminent threat to the Palestinians in the occupied territories as well as to the rights of women, LGBTQI+ community and all other minorities in Israel.
