I am concerned about our addiction to internal quarrels just as much as I am concerned about our conflicts with external opponents. Our "righteousness" will not prevail and our "strength" will crack over time if we do not act decisively to establish, gradually yet persistently , norms of public life and civil society — which sets norms for what is done and what isn’t done far above the criminal threshold... We need profound change in the area of respect for the rule of law, standards of governance, keeping the thin line between freedom of expression and freedom of incitement — and immediately hitting the brakes on racism and Jewish terrorism — which in my opinion should be treated within the criminal domain..
