A frontal confrontation took place last night (Thursday) between right-wing activist Mordechai David and publicist Rani Rahav.
David ambushed Rahav while he was dining at a restaurant, recorded him on his phone - and hurled harsh words at him, in front of the stunned diners.
In the video, David is seen approaching Rahav's desk and shouting: "Your car is blocked, a walking wild boar, I'm blocking it for you.".
Rahav, who seemed surprised and shocked, called the police to the scene.
Shortly after the incident, Rahav posted a harsh response on social media, claiming that the police arrived at the scene and took David for questioning.
""The criminal Mordechai David came to interrupt my dinner, I immediately called the police and they took him where he needed to be! We must not forget that we are a law and order state! Poor criminals will not try to scare the public.".

Rahav pointed an accusing finger at the political echelon: "The next time a government minister or a Knesset member supports the criminal Mordechai David, the people will go to the supporter's house and explain to him that in a state of law, the legislator or minister cannot embrace and support a criminal.".
He directly attacked National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir: "To you, Police Minister Ben-Gvir, I say, the public is not stupid and it will not let you turn Israel into a criminal state, shame on you.".
