Avigdor Lieberman Faces Death Threats and Severe Incitement Online
Yisrael Beytenu party chairman Avigdor Lieberman received explicit physical threats and severe hate messages, prompting an official complaint to the Knesset Sergeant-at-Arms amid escalating political incitement.
A severe and dangerous wave of threats has been directed in recent days against Yisrael Beytenu party chairman and Member of Knesset Avigdor Lieberman. The party's press service revealed severe hate messages and explicit threats of physical harm sent to Lieberman, presenting a disturbing picture of rampant incitement.
Among the severe and chilling incitement statements exposed, one explicitly wrote: "The slaughterer is on his way to you." Alongside this physical threat, additional messages were sent containing curses and harsh expressions, including: "Illiterate, pathetic, wretched Nazi pig, may your name be erased," and also: "Wicked secularist, you have no right to exist in Israel, get out of there, you and your entire party."
Following these serious threats, another official complaint was filed with the Knesset Sergeant-at-Arms, joining a long line of complaints previously submitted to law enforcement authorities. Yisrael Beytenu warns that this is an ongoing and disturbing phenomenon showing a clear escalation in the severity of the threats, and that the violent discourse has crossed a bright red line, especially given the use of a direct physical threat intended to instill fear.
As of this time, the report regarding the threats and the filing of the complaint is based on the official statement of the Yisrael Beytenu party and the attached screenshots, while the Knesset Sergeant-at-Arms and law enforcement authorities have not yet issued a public and independent response to the details of the case.
