This may well be just the beginning of an extreme right wing agenda in Israel. It will not end well for them, I imagine. They have gone from being the repressed to the agents of repression... it will not end well. To think that Israel has not changed drastically is to ignore the senses our creator gave us. Politically Israel has been given complete support for decades but for me personally, they have burned through their goodwill credits completely now. Indeed we need to strip away any rag of justification here. Lets finally consign history's mistakes to history after this atrocity and focus on the human rights of all peoples, for the good of everyone.
