Amit Brinn, the demonstrator who carried a mock guillotine at the Tel Aviv demonstration Saturday night wrote on his Facebook page that "I'm a pacifist who opposes any kind of violence. I have never used violence in my life and do not intend to do so in the future. This is how I educate my children and I ask those who interpreted my words or actions as a call to violence to stop doing so. Whoever interpreted them in this way was misled."
