ALL COMEDY IS CONSERVATIVE:

Education Minister Naftali Bennett doubled down Wednesday on his criticism of figures in the Religious Zionist community for their condemnation of the Shin Bet security service over accusations of torture during the interrogation of suspects in the fatal Duma firebombing.

Speaking at a conference of the right-wing weekly B'sheva, the Jewish Home party leader reiterated comments he made a day earlier denouncing right-wing extremists as "terrorists," and said it was hypocritical to oppose interrogation methods considered acceptable against Palestinians.

"What was done to the Duma detainees is for certain not more, and probably less, than what is done regularly to Palestinian terror suspects," he said.
