Description
Tens of thousands of Israelis rallied in central Tel Aviv on Saturday for a sixth straight week against controversial legal reforms being pushed by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's right-wing government.
"It's very important to encourage the young generation to understand the importance of Democracy," says one protester.
The proposed judicial reforms would allow Israel's parliament to overrule any Supreme Court decision with a simple majority of 61 lawmakers in the 120-seat body, as well as boost political control over the system through which judges are appointed. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
