Democrats Party chairman Yair Golan has made many outragous statements in his political career, including comparing Israel to Nazis, calling Religous Zionists “subhuman” and of course, accusing Chareidim of being money-hungry and backwards. He also has repeatedly and openly called for a civil rebellion against the government, including doing “illegal things.”

But his most recent irresponsible and libelous statements, including that “IDF soldiers kill babies as a hobby,” were a step too far, igniting such ire among Israelis that Golan has been unable to carry out routine political activities.

Last week, he traveled to Kiryat Shmona to speak at a conference and was met with calls of derision by residents, which angered Golan so much that he pushed an elderly man.

On Tuesday, he traveled to Be’er Sheva to speak at the Sderot conference but was unable to deliver his address as the audience members screamed “Traitor, traitor, traitor!!” and “Bushah, bushah! bushah!”

Golan yelled back at them: “Shame on you, shame on you, shame on you. Nothing but hate, you don’t know anything but hate. That’s what you’re doing, dismantling the State of Israel, continuing to divide.”

Watch the video below to see just one example of the damage Golan’s libelous statements caused to Israel:
