Attorneys for the family of Rabbi Meir Kahane said they would fight a decision by the Israel Broadcast Administration to remove a radio ad inviting the public to a memorial service for the slain Knesset member this week. The IBA said it would remove the commercial after the leftist Peace Now complained about it, claiming that MK Rabbi Kahane was "controversial."
The ad features MK Michael Ben-Ari (National Union) inviting the public to participate in the memorial service, to be held on the 19th anniversary of Rabbi Kahane's murder.
