Every man who wears a yarmulke has become a target of the Shin Bet, the father of one of the suspects arrested on Tuesday in the Tel Aviv area for trying to block main junctions by blowing up cars, said.
"I say this with great sorrow, very close to the Holocaust Memorial Day. Shin Bet acts like the Gestapo."
The angry father continued to specify: "They push, they hit, they act violently -- all to intimidate these kids, who are good kids."
The 'good kids' -- all West Bank "settlers" -- were arrested by Tel Aviv police Tuesday for replacing the license plates of two cars in Tel Aviv. Both cars were allegedly filled with mattresses soaked in gas.
