This is not a quote from a no-one.
This is a quote from Dr. Mordechai Kedar, an Israeli scholar of Arabic literature and lecturer at Bar-Ilan University in Israel. Among others, he is the current director of the Israel Academia Monitor, a neo-McCarthyst website that follows alleged “anti-Israel activities of Israeli academics”.
He made this statement on Monday in an Israeli radio station talk show.
The interviewer, Yossi Hadar, responded that Kedar’s proposal “sounds bad […] We can not of course take such measures.”
But Kedar replied that “it is culture…” and “this is the Middle East”, before adding that “I did not speak about what we are doing or not doing. I am speaking about the reality: the only thing that will deter a suicide bomber – if he knew that if he pulls the trigger, his sister will be raped.”
Bar Ilan University is a Jewish religious university situated in a Tel Aviv suburb. In November 1995, Yigal Amir, a student at the institution, assassinated Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin.
