Bennett to vigil attendees: ‘Don’t be afraid to be who you are’

Speaking at the vigil for Shira Banki in Jerusalem, Education Minister Naftali Bennett says she was “murdered because of radicalism that raised its head.”

“Because we don’t know how to accept the other. Students in Israel need first of all to know: Don’t be afraid to be who you are and what you are,” he says, according to Ynet.
