In a post on Twitter, MK Rafi Peretz (United Right) responded to comments by MK Ofer Cassif (Hadash-Tall) on Rav Kook, writing:
"I left the Knesset plenum after Ofer Cassif called Rabbi Kook a racist, one of the greatest things we have learned from the Torah is our eternal connection to the land of Israel, our human dignity and our commitment to Torah Israel."
