Bismuth tries to pit Shin Bet against High Court in election dispute
A letter from Boaz Bismuth asked the Shin Bet to address both foreign election threats and concerns stemming from a recent High Court ruling
Assessment
Boaz Bismuth's letter attempts to create friction between two powerful state institutions by asking the Shin Bet to weigh in on a High Court ruling about elections. This could escalate tensions between security agencies and the judiciary. The outcome depends on how the Shin Bet responds and whether the court treats the request as an overstep.
