A desecration of God's Name

22 arrested in right-wing demonstration

Itamar Ben-Gvir and Baruch Marzel should be locked up permanently, much like Benny Sela or Marwan Barghouti. They've done enough damage to Israeli society as is, and their damage to Judaism is irreparable.

I am not condoning the government's inaction after the Mercaz Harav Massacre. I just happen to find the extreme right's reaction to be even more repugnant.

My heart goes out to the police officers that had to deal with these assholes.

More on this later, as I have an overdue post on the entire Mercaz Harav Massacre that's in the process of being written.

EDIT: To show some balance, I'd like to add Tali Fahima, Yariv Oppenheimer, and Gideon Levy to the list of extremists that should be permanently locked up. Again, more on this later.

extremism, politics, israel
