Peace Now vs. Hevron Settlers
Arutz 7 ^ | 1/20/09 | Hillel Fendel

IsraelNN.com) The latest episode of Tuesday Night Live in Jerusalem (TNL) contrasts Hevron's Jews with members of radical left-wing Peace Now.

TNL, a live, monthly pro-Torah English TV broadcast well into its second six-month season on Israel National News TV, is co-hosted by Ari Abramowitz and Jeremy Gimpel, with the help of special guests and Jewish music bands, who together celebrate the beauty of Torah and Judaism in the State of Israel in Holy Land.

The current Episode 25 features on-the-street interviews with Peace Now members at a "peace" rally, juxtaposed with similar interviews with Jews living in Hevron. While Rabbi Yisrael Shlissel, son-in-law of terrorist victim and Hevron resident Rabbi Shlomo Raanan, says he believes that "some of the Peace Now members mean well," some of the left-wingers say unabashedly before the camera that they hate the settlers; one even volunteers the information that he would gladly shoot all of them.

One young left-wing female protestor, asked to express the nicest thing she can say about the "settlers," said, "They're criminals. Maybe they like art, or maybe they speak English well, but they're thieves, violent, crazy."

Another said, "I despise them, I hate them, I want them out."

Asked how he would respond to a "Hug a Leftist Day" initiative, one Hevron resident said, "Fine, but they would probably accuse me of attacking them and call the police."
