[NO CONSTITUTION = NO SEPARATION OF POWERS]

Not having a Constitution is especially detrimental for Israel as there is no clear separation of power on the three branches - legislative, executive and the judiciary. 

In countries with a Constitution, the Constitution gives power to the three branches - executive, legislative and judiciary. So, there is a clear separation of power where one branch cannot infringe the other

There is a lot of confusion in the real powers and limitations of each branch in Israel, with the judiciary having powers to review not only laws but also government proceedings in their Parliament (Knesset). 

Most countries have specific laws that disallows Courts from intervening the parliament as the parliament enacts and governs the passing and enforcement of laws. The duty of the Court is not to create new laws, but it is to interpret the laws.

It is an entirely different situation in Israel as there are infringements in between the branches. As a result of preferring not to have a Constitution and to continue in a state of lawlessness, this chaos and confusion ensues.
