Okay... let's get to it, people. Israel's Basic Laws are fundamental, but they're anything but basic. They're long, they're confusing, and they are boring as all else. So... we've given them an upgrade: short tweets summarizing their content and message, all capped at 280 characters. Now that's readable, and dare we say... basic?
If you're trying to understand Israel's legal documentation but are falling asleep like any normal person would, here's the rundown (and a good laugh):
Basic Law: The Knesset (1958)
Basic Law: Israel Lands (1960)
Basic Law: President of the State (1964)
Basic Law: The Government (2001)
Basic Law: The State Economy (1975)
