MK Benny Begin was verbally assaulted today (Monday) as he was leaving a new Tikva faction meeting in the Beit Shemesh municipality, by Rami Ben Yehuda, a Likud activist and supporter of opposition leader Netanyahu. Ben Yehuda said to Begin: “A disgusting old man, your father is overturned in his grave.”
It should be noted that Ben Yehuda waited for Begin to leave the building and followed him to his vehicle while he slapped him:
The disturbed and quarrelsome bib band that attacked MK Benny Begin is the farthest thing imaginable from Begin’s legacy. Proudly trampling the “citrus” of which generations of Betar have dreamed and fought. We will preserve the values we grew up with and the country from the instigator and his emissaries. pic.twitter.com/5KIXa827G6

After the event, a new Tikva chairman, Justice Minister Gideon Sa’ar, said: Of Betar. We will preserve the values on which we grew up and the state from the instigator and his emissaries. “
Meanwhile, MK Miki Zohar defended MK Begin and said: “Despite the difficult disagreements between us, the ugly attack against Benny Begin, an old Knesset member, will not return us to the leadership of the state. This is not the way.”
It should be noted that this is not Ben Yehuda’s first encounter with coalition members. Before forming a government, he demonstrated in front of Zeev Elkin’s house and confronted his wife. A few months ago he came to the home of Deputy Father Abir Kara’s father.
Despite the difficult disagreements we have built, the ugly attack against Benny Begin, an old Knesset member, will not return us to the leadership of the state. This is not the way.
