Mayor Moshe Abutbol calls on extremists to leave city
in light of the stoning attack today in RBS B against a car driving through with a soldier in uniform, the mayor, who is out of town currently, has put out a declaration through "his people", and it is important enough that I have decided to bring it here and translate it:
I denounce them in both the name of the law and in the name of the Jewish halcha.
I have said similarly at the dedication ceremony of the Yad lBanim home that I established to memorialize the fallen soldiers, hy"d.
I call upon the police and the legal authorities to identify the perpetrator and to punish him to the full extent of the law.
One who raises his hand against a fellow Jew is called a wicked person
עצוב שישנם תושבים כאלו קיצוניים. אני חוזר על קריאתי בעצרת יום הזיכרון לחללי צה"ל היקרים, לאותם קיצוניים, להסתלק ולעזוב את העיר. הם אינם מתאימים לאחדות הנדרשת בבית שמש."It is upsetting that there are residents so extreme. I am repeating my call from the ceremony on Memorial Day to those extremists, to leave the city. They are not compatible with the unity needed in bet Shemesh.
"אני מוקיע זאת גם בשם החוק וגם בשם ההלכה היהודית."
"דברים דומים נאמרו על ידי גם בחנוכת בית יד לבנים שהקמתי לזכר חללי צה"ל הי"ד."
"אני קורא למשטרה ולרשויות החוק לאתר את הפושע ולהענישו במלא חומרת הדין"
"המרים יד על חברו נקרא רשע".
ראש העיר נמצא בשעות אלו מחוץ לעיר וביקש כי הודעתו נחרצת זו למעשה נפשע זה תגיע לכל תושבינו.
I denounce them in both the name of the law and in the name of the Jewish halcha.
I have said similarly at the dedication ceremony of the Yad lBanim home that I established to memorialize the fallen soldiers, hy"d.
I call upon the police and the legal authorities to identify the perpetrator and to punish him to the full extent of the law.

Is this the same mayor who said on national radio (regarding the infamous tznius signs) that the haredim can do what they like in their private neighbourhood...? I guess they took him at his word
