a "campaign that has been going on for years which aims to erode the public's faith in the courts, which is being conducted by all kinds of elements."
Beinisch made the comments during a conversation with legal affairs correspondents, in which she also expanded on a few key elements of her policy as Supreme Court president.
Beinisch said that the court system's deteriorating image has made it difficult to recruit new judges. "What is happening here is eroding the attractiveness of being a judge," she added. "It has become fashionable to examine all of the candidates, and every judge is first being viewed as a suspect."
"Elements".
That is such a pejorative term.
In Israel, the criticism of the judicial system has been harsh on a multiplicity of levels and across the board. It exists because many judges and much of the legal bureacracy stinks, on a juridical, ideological, political and technical-management level.
