In this edition of Wilson Center NOW, we are joined by Aaron David Miller, Senior Fellow Carnegie Endowment for International Peace and former Vice President, Director, and Scholar at the Wilson Center.
Aaron David Miller, Senior Fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, discusses Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ushering in controversial judicial reforms as protests still continue. He speaks with Annmarie Hordern and Joe Mathieu on Bloomberg's "Balance of Power."

This is the first stab, probably in Mr. Netanyahu's mind, the least objectionable of some of the legal reforms that some of his ministers want to achieve.
