OOPS BEN-GAVIR! EVEN A FOOL IS CONSIDERED WISE WHEN HE OPENS NOT HIS MOUTH

[Rebbetzin]

Hi everyone,

Israel has had a gut full of the interference from so-called well meaning activists. They’ve had a gut full from the whole world that is coming against them from every angle, persuased by the Hamas brigade and its many allies and “friends” in the media and Western governments worldwide.

So when a prominent politician from Israel loses it at the flotilla “visitors”, he probably thinks he has every right to do so, and some might agree wholeheartedly.

But, not so fast. The evil one’s henchman are always on the prowl and seeking to devour, they most certainly are.

There is another Scripture in one of the Psalms where David asks the Lord to keep his mouth closed, while the evil doer is around. Ben-Gvir forgot his Scripture and let fly in the midst of cameras and lots of evil ones ready and ever willing to pounce.

Here was Israel at its not so finest and the world noticed. Of course it did. It turns a blind eye to many evil atrocities committed in the world by others more heinous than Ben-Gvir’s untimely outburst. Every time Israel makes one false move, they bring out the guns, especially when someone gives them the ammunition. Unfortunately for him, Ben-Gvir has reaped a whirlwind of criticism from many corners of the Western world because he did a Moses on the situation.

We all know Moses was punished by JeHoVaH because he stepped over the line. YeHoVaH’s line. He forgot who he was, he got a big head and he lacked the faith in YeHoVaH that he should’ve had in abundance by that time. (Well, I should talk.) He didn’t get to dwell in the Land that YeHoVaH was giving to the children of Israel after all those decades, he only saw it from afar. He messed up, badly. And so did Itamar Ben-Gvir.  He has messed up and forced the PM Netanyahu to condemn his behaviour, and rightly so.

This following article is not from a right leaning publication, however it does do the situation justice in its reporting and gives us all an idea of the Australian response to the untimely and brazen outbursts of one, Itamar Ben-Gvir and its none too gentle. I wish you hadn’t done that, mate.


‘Unacceptable’: Israeli envoy summoned as ‘shocking’ footage sparks global fury”

“Israel’s ambassador to Australia will be hauled before the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade to reinforce the government’s displeasure with a video of Israel’s national security minister taunting detained flotilla activists, Foreign Minister Penny Wong has said.

“In a Thursday morning statement, Wong said the provocative video of Itamar Ben-Gvir was “shocking and unacceptable” and that “Australia’s ambassador to Israel had made Labor’s frustrations clear to the Israeli government”.

““The images we have seen posted by Israeli Minister Ben-Gvir – who Australia has sanctioned – are shocking and unacceptable. We condemn his actions and the degrading actions of Israeli authorities towards those detained,” Wong said.

“Australia’s ambassador to Israel has made representations to Israel, reiterating our call for the release of the detained Australians and for Israel to ensure no ill-treatment of any detainees and to act in line with international obligations.
“I have also directed DFAT to call in Israel’s Ambassador to Australia to reinforce this message.”

“Israel’s ambassador to Australia was last called in by DFAT in July last year. Then-ambassador Amir Maimon was summoned amid accusations of starvation and famine-like conditions in Gaza.

“It is the first time the current ambassador, Hillel Newman, has been called in. He started in the role in February this year. Newman is expected to meet with DFAT on Thursday afternoon.”

““Netanyahu said that although Israel has every right to stop “provocative flotillas of Hamas terrorist supporters”, the way Ben-Gvir dealt with the activists was “not in line with Israel’s values and norms”.

“Ben-Gvir released the videos on Wednesday, showing him walking among some of the approximately 430 detained activists, a group that includes 11 Australians. In one, activists with their hands tied behind their backs are kneeling, their heads touching the floor inside what appears to be a makeshift detention area and on the deck of a ship.

““Welcome to Israel, we are the landlords,” says Ben-Gvir, waving a large Israeli flag. One handcuffed activist shouts “free Palestine” as Ben-Gvir walks by and is immediately pushed to the ground by security personnel.

“In another video, Ben-Gvir says the activists “came here all full of pride like big heroes. Look at them now”, while appealing to Netanyahu to grant him permission to imprison them.”

“Foreign Minister Penny Wong’s response led condemnation from other nations.

“British Foreign Secretary Yvette Cooper said the footage posted of Ben-Gvir “violates the most basic standards of respect and dignity” in how people should be treated and demanded an explanation from Israeli authorities.

“US ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee, who is known for his support of Israel’s far-right settlement movement, called Ben-Gvir’s actions “despicable”, saying he had “betrayed the dignity of his nation”.

“Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni demanded an apology from Israel, describing the treatment of the activists as a “violation of human dignity”. Italy also summoned Israel’s ambassador in Rome to protest at the treatment of Italian detainees and demand their immediate release.

“The Turkish Foreign Ministry said the behaviour “openly demonstrated to the world the violent and barbaric mindset” of Israel’s government, while Greece’s Foreign Ministry called Ben-Gvir’s actions “unacceptable and entirely condemnable” and said it had lodged a formal protest.

“Palestinian militant group Hamas called out Ben-Gvir for the “scenes of abuse and humiliation” of the activists, saying they show Israel’s “moral decadence and sadism”.”

“Israel to deport activists quickly, amid protests
Netanyahu said he has given instructions for the activists to be deported “as soon as possible”.

“Ben-Gvir also drew the ire of Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar, who publicly chastised his fellow minister on X, saying: “You knowingly caused harm to our State in this disgraceful display.”

““No, you are not the face of Israel,” Saar wrote.
Ben-Gvir shot back at Saar in the Israeli parliament, accusing him of “bowing to the terrorists” and that any Israeli apology to the activists would send a message of “weakness”, “submission”, and “surrender”.”

““Adalah’s statement said this followed similar patterns of ill-treatment by Israeli authorities against activists in previous flotilla missions “for which Israel faced zero accountability”.

“Global Sumud Flotilla spokesperson Rania Batrice said Ben-Gvir posts such videos because the world hasn’t held Israel to account.

““If they’re doing that to Europeans and Americans and people from South Africa and all over the world, imagine what they’re doing to the Palestinian people,” Batrice said.

“Flotilla organisers claimed Israeli soldiers fired on five boats during the interdictions, causing some damage. Israel’s Foreign Ministry said no live ammunition was fired and that “non-lethal means” were aimed at the vessels as a warning, but without targeting or injuring protesters.”


Yeah-nah. Not a good look now Itamar, is it?

Love and Shalom,
