Justice Minister Yariv Levin has launched a process to remove Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara from her position, accusing her of obstructing the government's initiatives. However, the documents provided by Levin actually reveal the government's repeated attempts to bypass legal requirements and Supreme Court rulings. The documents include opinions on issues such as the independence of the judicial branch, limitations on the prime minister's incapacitation, and attempts to bypass loss of daycare subsidies. The letter from Levin paints a picture of a malicious Attorney-General's Office, but the evidence shows that the government has been trying to alter the balance of power and pass unconstitutional laws. The move to remove Baharav-Miara is seen as part of the government's strategy to remove checks on its power and turn Israel into an autocracy.
