Meet the Youth for the Land of Israel - rightist zealots on a mission
http://www.haaretz.com/hasen/spages/1152774.html

The movement is one of the most dominant in the West Bank, having arisen after the Gaza disengagement as a forum for disaffected rightist youth to espouse their ideologies. Today the organization's hard core comprises 150 to 200 members.

The group is headed by Daniella Weiss, the former mayor of the Kedumim settlement. Weiss draws her spiritual legitimacy from Rabbi Moshe Levinger, one of the founders of the modern Jewish community in Hebron.


its morning in israel...and i really hate reading about them in the beginning of a new week. too much religion and too much youth...a really bad combination.

1. Ugh. Religious right-wing nutters are a menace.

2. They really need to be brought under control...
It's ridiculous that they're running riot in the West Bank the way they are...
