The High Court of Justice in Israel is seeking to avert a constitutional crisis in the hearing of the case involving the firing of Shin Bet chief Ronen Bar. The court is urging the government and the attorney general to find a compromise in order to avoid issuing a final ruling. The judges have identified procedural flaws in Bar's dismissal and are concerned about the potential constitutional crisis that could arise if they were to declare the dismissal unlawful. The proposed compromise is to refer the matter to an advisory committee, allowing the government to present its case and potentially gain approval for the dismissal.
