Hadas Fogel (z "l)
HY"D
The Rabbi of Itamar, Rav Natan Chai, called upon the IDF to arrest the mother and aunt of the murderer following their praise for the atrocity.
"A
situation in which Israel allows the murderer to be praised encourages
the next murderer," he said. "A state cannot allow incitement to murder
its citizens. The Shin Bet and IDF must act and arrest the people who praise the murders."
The
teenage terrorist and his partner in the massacre, another young member
of the Awad clan, are members of the Popular Front for the Liberation
of Palestine (PFLP). They were assisted by at least six others, four of
them from their family.
