Minister Moshe Ya’alon related to the recent phenomenon of racist vilence on his facebook page, “Recent violent racism against Arabs is immoral and reprehensible. We must oppose it with prejudice.

“Jewish and human morality make it incumbent upon us to handle these cases from legal and educational perspectives. In the week of the passing of the role model of religious dialogue and tolerance, Rabbi Menachem Fruman, we must remember his commitment to oppose violence and racism, and follow his example.”
