Avi Dichter on the severed-heads Tel Aviv demonstration: Incitement to murder Netanyahu 

Avi Dichter, the former head of the Shin Bet, attacked the violent display from the Kaplan demonstration last night (Saturday), which featured severed heads in the image of Prime Minister Netanyahu, and claimed: "Such acts of incitement cross all red lines, the police and the Shin Bet must immediately open an investigation."

According to Dichter: "Last night, like many others, I saw incitement to murder a Prime Minister in Israel. I will not publish the horrific picture, I will not lend a hand to disturbed anarchists, I will just say this: Such acts of incitement cross any legal boundary."

The former head of the Shin Bet added: "The police and the Shin Bet must immediately open an investigation that will lead to heavy punishment. When incitement is treated with leniency, dangerous anarchists see it as a weakness of the country's law enforcement system and further shorten the line between a show that incites incitement and murder."

Last night, the Likud commented on the inciting display: "Madness. This represents incitement to murder the Prime Minister. Where is the enforcement of the legal advisor and Ronen Bar?"

Education Minister Yoav Kisch said: "A sickening horror! It cannot be that such incitement passes without arrests. I call on the police and the Shin Bet to wake up and deal with this dangerous incitement immediately."
