Oh Supreme Court of Israel,
You are ever so wise and loyal
Your judgements are fair and just
And can never be unjust
We honor your high justice and vow

'“I don’t know what the judges will rule in the end, but the general feeling — including among the lawyers — is that the judges are going to overrule [Deri’s] appointment. Even if our arguments were correct, they won’t value them because of what Levin did,” the source said, expressing frustration and anger that Levin had not consulted with Shas officials before making his announcement.'

I think that part of the problem the current governing coalition has is that they don't understand that courts generally don't base their decisions on petty considerations like these.

Judges aim to apply consistent principles, fairly. At least more than politicians whose principles seem to shift a little too often.
