Description
Protest being held in Rome, by angry citizens, to save the "only democracy in the Middle East", during the Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's visit.
"It (Israel) was born as a democratic country and should continue to be so forever. Someone is trying to turn it into a dictatorship, but we refuse to accept it in any way.", says a protester.
Netanyahu has been facing protests since January over the far-right government's plans to weaken the judiciary. This is being considered a possible threat to democracy and Israelis are not going to accept it. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
