    I doubt the friendlier face thing. Bennett is a genocidal maniac, he's less self-interested than Bibi and will absolutely annex all of the West Bank by the decade's end.

          In 2018 a leading “liberal” zionist can think – & say out loud, on nation-wide TV – that Jews & non-Jews who fall in love with one another & decide to spend their lives together are “an actual plague” which he hopes to find a “solution” for.

          Anti-miscegenation proponents are the worst. Brazen ethnosupremacists. Many more references: https://nitter.snopyta.org/davidsheen/status/101

          I mistook him for another Israeli politician with the "a plague" quote, but he was head of the education ministry when it banned a book from schools which was about an Israeli-Palestinian relationship.

          "Intimate relations between Jews and non-Jews threaten the separate identity of each sector," the Education Ministry said in a statement, adding that "young adolescents don't have the systemic view that includes considerations involving maintaining the national, ethnic identity of the people and the significance of miscegenation."
