Member of Knesset Bezalel Smotrich (Jewish Home) said, Tuesday morning, that the order to distance Elkana Pikar of the Samarian Jewish community of Yitzhar from Judea and Samaria for four months represented "stupidity and incomprehensibility".
Writing on Twitter, Smotrich described Pikar as "a father who provides for a family with six children, one of the few who manages to understand and put the hilltop youth on track a little. All the social welfare workers go through him. Some democracy."
