Rabbi Shmuel Eliyahu, the rabbi of the city of Safed, sharply attacked the Israel Police following the chase in which the police officers collided with a vehicle in which the hill boys were traveling and caused the killing of their beloved godfather.
In a lesson he gave yesterday (Monday), the contents of which reached Israel Today, the rabbi calls for the removal of the police officers, whom he called "disruptions," and for cleaning stables for the police.
"You have sinned in the most terrible sin of all," Rabbi Eliyahu addressed the police who chased the boys.
"I do not know who gave you the criminal order to chase a vehicle of boys, collide with it and kill a 17-year-old boy. There is no doubt that whoever gave this order should be thrown from the ranks of the police straight into prison."
The mayor of Safed claimed that the police act selectively and discriminate against Jews, while pursuing a mitigating policy against Arabs who throw stones at Israeli cars.
"It amazes me very much how the police have a determination to pursue a Jew who is only" suspected "of throwing stones, while towards Arabs who actually throw stones you hardly act, certainly not with such determination. There are dozens of stone-throwing incidents every week by Arabs who are not treated at all And close on the day of the complaint out of lack of interest. If you are in danger of life, the Jews will protect you. And the ones who will run your head in stone are the Arab stone-throwers who will run your heads in stone with criminal cruelty as they ran the head of Esther Horgan. Basil ", rage.
"You must repent," Rabbi Eliyahu added in a public address to the police.
"Your hands and the hands of your commanders are full of blood. All your prayers will not be heard before the Creator even on Yom Kippur until you repent. Go to the family, get down on your knees and ask forgiveness from the grieving family you killed her son. "The troublemakers who confuse you and teach you to act the opposite of common sense. You will work to remove them from the ranks of the police. Whether they are confused commanders such as Yair Golan, or whether they are lawyers who have been trained by the New Israel Fund."
"You are allowed and you must ask the commanders why there is where and where in the orders. Why do we give up on Arab stone-throwers and persecute only Jews. Do not let their common sense be disturbed," the rabbi concluded.
