Mark of Cain: Jewish violence becomes a stain on the State of Israel

In an opinion column for Ma'ariv, Efrayim Ganor condemns Jewish violence in Judea and Samaria and what he calls 'Israeli silence,' citing US Ambassador Mike Huckabee, who called the rioters 'Israeli terrorists.' He blames 'Hilltop Youth' for violent acts and warns that normalizing crimes will be etched as a mark of Cain on the Jewish people.

Efrayim Ganor's column in Ma'ariv attacks Jewish violence in Judea and Samaria and what he calls 'Israeli silence' in the face of it. The author is outraged that Jews wearing kippot and tzitzit behave as 'rioters' who attack and uproot innocents, and notes that no righteous person has risen to cry out to stop it. He refers to US Ambassador Mike Huckabee, a pro-Israel figure, who condemned the extremist activists and called them 'Israeli terrorists.' Ganor argues that the silencing and normalization of crimes are an 'unforgivable crime' that will be etched as a 'mark of Cain' on the forehead of the Jewish people. The column mentions the village of Qusra and the group 'Hilltop Youth' as responsible for the violent acts, and criticizes those who are supposed to stop the crime but close their eyes.
