‘Only the opening shot’: Local Likud boss issues threat after riot at Reform synagogue in Ra’anana

The head of the ruling Likud party’s branch in Ra’anana praises those who took part in a riot at a Reform synagogue in the central city that was screening the joint Israeli-Palestinian Memorial Day ceremony.

“To the left in Ra’anana, I announce that this is only the opening shot, don’t try us,” Racheli Ben Ari Sakat writes in a post on Facebook that includes video of her addressing the demonstrators.

“Whoever comes from outside Ra’anana, get away from here,” she further threatens. “And those in Ra’anana, see you’ve been warned. We will not be silent anymore [and] will come out in throngs.”
