‘At this rate, she’ll be Prime Minister’
July 13, 2016The Chairman of the Jerusalem District of the Israeli Bar Association and a member of the Committee for the Appointment of Judges, Asher Axelrod, showers accolades on Minister of Justice Ayelet Shaked (Jewish Home) for her work in appointing judges accepted by a broad consensus within Israeli society.
“It’s no secret that Shaked does a lot of important work beyond the appointment of judges, but to devote such care to this issue is very important, and I’m not sure that politicians gave it the proper attention in previous years.”
Axelrod has long been identified with the Haredi sector, nevertheless, his work with Shaked has led him to value her work, as well as to a greater understanding of the needs and interests of the Religious Zionist camp.
“The involvement of Religious Zionism in the courts now is unprecedented, and that’s to the credit of Minister Shaked,” said Axelrod.
Axelrod admits that he was hesitant, to say the least, when he heard of Shaked’s appointment, until “we saw who we were dealing with. Suddenly proposed laws that had laid in moldy shelves for years came to light, excellent legislation for the good of the wider public […] She really works for the good of all of the nation of Israel.”
