The Tuesday protest, to be held at 6 PM outside the Prime Minister’s Residence near the Sheraton Plaza and Kings Hotel.

Retrial for Man Who Lauded Rabin Murder

Excerpt;

“The Supreme Court determined … later in the separate case that a clause in the anti-terrorism decree … is limited only to the praise and encouragement of violent acts of terror organizations.

Excerpts;

“‘We thought it was a chance to show the Palestinians that there were more benefits from cooperation than confrontation,’ Zuckerman explained.”

“Zuckerman’s New York Daily News reported on September 22 that ‘a week after they [Palestinians] descended like locusts on the greenhouses… looters continue to pillage what should be a prize asset for a fledgling Palestinian state.’ In response to this wanton destruction, Zuckerman said, ‘I’m just sad that they are cutting off their noses to spite their faces. …It’s almost inexplicable.'”“Later in the same article, 29-year-old Samir Al-Najar explained why he and eight of his men destroyed a half-acre greenhouse at the N’vei Dekalim settlement. He would probably rebuild the greenhouses, he said, ‘but I want the greenhouses to be our own, not Jewish ones.'” read more
