"The announcement, made last week in a bid to manage the overpopulation of strays in the Palestinian city, stipulated that residents will be paid over $5 for each dog taken off the streets.
Images of Palestinians killing and torturing animals were posted to social media, triggering outrage.
The mayor, Tayseer Abu Sneineh, was convicted in 1980 for taking part in a terrorist attack in Hebron where six Israeli civilians were killed and around 20 others were wounded.
Abu Sneineh and three fellow terrorists were sentenced to life in prison but were eventually released in prisoner exchanges."
The above news item appeared today.
Abu Sneineh shot six Jews in the back as they were praying on Shabbat, and was elected as mayor of Hevron
The mayor is only now getting some attention and criticism.
After spending three years in jail (when he was paid hefty "pay for slay " bonuses by the Palestinian Authority (that Israel created) {you can't make this stuff up})he was released when Israel agreed to one of those outrageous prisoner exchanges. Was it one Jew for one thousand Arab killers or was it more?
I forget which "exchange it was.
Murdering six Jews made him a shoo-in to be elected to mayor of Hevron. The world did not think this was irregular. There was no news of dog abuse at the time.
When it was learned that dogs were abused, Israeli "humanists” demanded the intervention of the Palestinian Authority, something that they rarely dare to do in their effort to of Jewish not threaten a "peace process" and our "peace partner"
Do you remember as I do when Israeli progressives of the "Peace Camp" kept silent when Jewish buses were blowing up and cafes bombed? They could not however be silent when a red line was crossed: when donkeys were used to blow up Jews? Why involve the poor donkey in the "conflict"?
Yes, we all know how the animal-loving Germans cared for their attack dogs after a hard but successful day of ripping Jews to shreds.
Is there a common thread connecting the above?
Abu Sneniah, the local hero was elected democratically by his Jew-hating constituency. Israel was not outraged. On the contrary, the voice of the people of Hevron was respected. Prime ministers like Netanyahu did not raise a voice of protest. They continued supplying life support and protection to the terrorist Palestinian Authority and its murderous mayors.
And the progressives that are so outraged today? They loved to visit and take photos with Palestinian leaders like these. After all, there wasn't an abused dog to be seen.
Pundits and politicians in Israel and abroad are alarmed and confounded by the success story of this election - Itamar Ben Gvir.
It's simple, as opposed to the sophisticated progressive experts, the Israeli public did not need abused dogs to know that the emperor has no clothes They know that Jews must not keep being killed.
Now if only Bibi will allow Ben Gvir and co. to do what the Jews voted for.
Bibi, respect the Israeli electorate at least as much as you do those of Hevron.
Bibi, show a little faith
Enough is enough
