The director of the Chotam organization, Amital Bareli, today refused to shake the hand of Minister Matan Kahana at the Makor Rishon conference.
After the event Bareli explained: "Matan Kahana is the one who actually implements the policy of the progressive left, he is their useful idiot, who will carry out all their dreams to disconnect Judaism from the state. He is destroying all of our foundations as a Jewish state.
'' At the time of the deportation they asked me to deport Jews I was not willing to be part of this process, and not to hug whoever did these atrocious things, it is in my eyes part of giving it legitimacy, it gives a feeling that there is something here that is not so terrible, so that's exactly why I did not agree to shake his hand, when there is abuse of the most basic things there is no room for politeness," Bareli said.
