Quote of the Week

“I know that in our society, the society of Israel, there is no place for such murderers (the Jewish extremists who killed an Arab teen). And that’s the difference between us and our neighbors. They consider murderers to be heroes. They name public squares after them. We don’t. We condemn them and we put them on trial and we’ll put them in prison.”

—Benjamin Netanyahu
