Original Note:

Bentzi Gopshtain, head of a radical right-wing Israeli group opposed to Jewish-Arab integration, advocated the burning of mosques and churches in Israel in 2015. https://www.timesofisrael.com/radical-jewish-groups-head-advocates-burning-churches/ https://www.haaretz.com/2015-08-06/ty-article/.premium/israeli-extremist-group-leader-calls-for-torching-of-churches/0000017f-f68a-d5bd-a17f-f6badc6e0000
