MK Zvi Sukkot Invites Left-Wing Protesters to Visit West Bank Farms
MK Zvi Sukkot appeared at a left-wing protest outside the Knesset on Wednesday, where demonstrators were rallying against what they called "Jewish terror" in Judea and Samaria. The protesters held signs attacking settlers and farm residents in the area.
Sukkot surprised the activists by approaching them directly and inviting them to join a joint tour of the farms. He said the best way to deal with deep disagreements is through familiarity and direct conversation.
"I believe that even when there are deep disagreements, the way to deal with them is through acquaintance and direct dialogue," Sukkot said. "The more we know how to speak with each other, the better future we will secure for all of us. Many times what people think is happening on the ground is not necessarily what is really happening."
He urged the activists not to rely on headlines and slogans, but to come and meet the families and see the reality up close. "Instead of conducting arguments from afar, I invite anyone who wants to understand the reality in Judea and Samaria to come, see with their own eyes, hear the people who live here and judge for themselves," he added. "Only that way can there be a real discussion based on facts and not on prejudices."
