MK Shelly Yachimovitz asks: Friends, calm down, without God, his blood will rise, it is not appropriate

January 5, 2016   

חברת הכנסת שלי יחימוביץ מהמחנה הציוני קראה אמש (שני) לעמיתיה הפוליטיקאים לחדול מלעשות שימוש בביטוי "השם יקום דמו" על חללים שנרצחו בידי ערבים. הסיבה? ובכן, לדבריה, "קשה גם ככה". בציוץ שפרסמה ברשת הטוויטר כתבה יחימוביץ: ""Yesterday I heard Yair Lapid say, "The Lord is Lord," today Herzog is tweeting his own "The Lord is Lord," "Unbelievable, not appropriate," friends, calm down, it's hard as it is."".   Yesterday, Zionist Union Chairman MK Yitzhak Herzog paid a condolence visit to the family home of Alon Bekel, who was murdered in the murderous terrorist attack on Dizengoff Street in Tel Aviv, and subsequently tweeted the tweet that prompted Yachimovich to respond: ""Coming from the Shabbat of the Bekel family in Karmiel, who are mourning the death of Elon the 14th. I came to comfort and left comforted and moved. May his memory be blessed!"" The chairman of the Yesh Atid party, MK Yair Lapid, has also been careful in recent months to attach the words "God will avenge their blood" to the names of the murdered.
