Israel's Military Backs Down to Racist Security Minister Ben-Gvir

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) backed down once again to National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir. One of his “Jewish Power” Knesset lawmakers, Yitzhak Kroizer, was in southern Lebanon as a reservist. There he posted a photo of himself in a house. Behind him was scrawled the title: “Office of MK Kroizer,” as Kroizer apparently was pretending that his legislative district and his Knesset duties included part of southern Lebanon. The “Yisrael Eretz” ("Greater Israel") ideology of Ben-Gvir’s “Otzma Yehudit” ("Jewish Power") party is no secret in Israel, as they haven’t defined a limit to their driving out their Palestinian residents and Arab neighbors.
