  1. An important conversation between two advocates for judicial reform, but one, Glick, confesses her concern for the fate of the reform, while the other, Rothman, explains his strong optimism that judicial reform will almost certainly be passed. Rothman explains that there has been some reticence even among the Right to actually press forward with the reform despite the fact that they have the means and votes to do so without the Left. The basis of the reluctance among the dissenting MKs on the Right, however, have seen their desire for a compromise bill stymied by the Left’s refusal to interact in any meaningful dialogue, thereby isolating these members. Rothman explains that the Left’s position is unlikely to change no matter how long the ‘negotiations’ linger on, and at the end of it, the dissident members of the Right will be forced to recognize the position in which they have placed themselves is untenable, and will ultimately support the legislation. Glick acknowledges at the end of the interview, which is well worth watching, that she is more hopeful for the passage of the judicial reform than she was at the beginning.
