Deputy Defense Minister Rabbi Eli Ben Dahan (United Right) responded to threats by the Zehut party to sue him for comments he made to his friends about the party.
"The Zehut party and its people think that through threats of libel suits against me, they will ever be in the Knesset, and they think that by hiding candidates with a problematic and anti-Jewish agenda who are making videos against circumcision, religious voters will support them."
"demands to silence me are the way of those who do not want to hear the truth about them."
