Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warned that the leftist Deep State is weaponizing the justice system to undermine democratically elected right-wing leaders in both Israel and the United States. His remarks, shared on X on Wednesday, suggested that judicial institutions are being manipulated to serve political agendas rather than uphold impartial justice.
In America and in Israel, when a strong right wing leader wins an election, the leftist Deep State weaponizes the justice system to thwart the people's will. They won't win in either place!

We stand strong together.
“In America and in Israel, when a strong right-wing leader wins an election, the leftist Deep State weaponizes the justice system to thwart the people’s will,” Netanyahu declared. “They won’t win in either place! We stand strong together.”

Netanyahu’s comments come amid his ongoing legal battles in Israel, as he faces challenges from the Attorney General and Israel’s internal security agency, the Israel Security Agency (ISA). His struggle to remove ISA Director Ronen Bar over policy disagreements has been blocked by Israel’s Attorney General, who ruled that Netanyahu cannot dismiss Bar without prior approval from the Advisory Committee for Senior Appointments.
His remarks align with a broader sentiment among conservatives who believe judicial and bureaucratic institutions have been co-opted to stifle right-wing political leaders. The parallels drawn between his own legal troubles and former President Donald Trump’s legal battles highlight concerns over political weaponization of legal systems in both nations.
In response to Netanyahu’s statement, billionaire tech entrepreneur and X owner Elon Musk signaled agreement by replying with a “100” emoji. Musk has previously voiced concerns about government overreach and institutional bias against right-leaning figures.
As political and legal tensions continue to rise in Israel, Netanyahu’s remarks reinforce his stance against entrenched bureaucracies resisting his policies. His comments also highlight growing conservative concerns about the influence of judicial institutions in shaping political outcomes.
