I have to wonder though, this individual was a member of the RDF. Isnt it time we had some sort of screening of potential recruits for psychiatric suitability?
If they had done so back in the early eighties, they might have weeded out that nut case who murdered his 3 comrades in the Lebanon.
If ever a guy should not have being allowed to carry firearms around, it was him .

I think that his first action on arriving in Tel Aviv, off the plane, said it all. Apparently he unfurled a Nazi flag, which must have been appreciated by the
local security forces. He should have been put on the plane back, with a couple

Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere***
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.
Actually TD, we landed in Beirut that time and not Tel Aviv and this Nazi flag thing is a load of nonsense as well. I think I might have seen or heard something as I was on the same chalk as that person.
The worst sin toward our fellow creatures is not to hate them, but to be indifferent to them: that's the essence of inhumanity.
