I'm not sure that Kach and Kahane Chai have actually harmed anyone. For all their tough talk, I am not aware of a single act of terrorism carried out by these groups. Still, the Israeli government saw fit to ban them not only from the Knesset, but from the land of Israel, retroactive to memebership in these groups. Meanwhile, Arab parties with expressed sympathies to the PLO, PA, and Hamas are allowed to continue to serve in the government of the "Jewish" state. Go figure.

You are correct. Rabbi Kahane and the Kach party worked for a peaceful future for all peoples. They spoke in clear terms, but harmed no one. That was not their intention. Outlawing them was a travesty of justice. Kahane understood that Jews need to keep their country secure for the longterm and said so. That scared some. That he was a proud, unashamed Jew embarrassed some Jews who lack an understanding of the lessons and implications for today of Jewish history and world history.
