Radio broadcaster Gabi Gazit launched into a diatribe against the Haredi religious public on air. He called the Haredim "worms, regressive, leeches and animals" and called for "packing them all up and sending them to Brooklyn". He also said that Jewish residents of Judea and Samaria were "an exact copy of what the Nazis said against the Jews."
UTJ MK Moshe Gafni filed a complaint with the Press Council and the Second Broadcasting Authority.
