I don’t think this would have been a Shin Bet operation; they are Jews, albeit largely secular ones, and would not think to describe Jesus as a monkey, since that is Muslim and not Jewish imagery.
No, no, no. That is not what I meant. I meant that they have been BLAMING things like this on Settlers, among other things, because they consider them outside the leftist mindset. The Settlers are the ones who have been evicted from their homes to make way for arabs in Gaza and the West Bank, and now the same is happening in Judea and Samaria. The more they can demonize the ‘Settlers’ as ‘right wing extremists’ the less protest from the Israeli population at large when they demolish entire LEGAL neighborhoods.
