"In a properly functioning country, there is no immunity for those who engage in terrorism," Ben Barak said in a tweet.
"Today, I asked Defense Minister Benny Gantz to determine that the racist organization Lehava is a terrorist organization," he added.In response to Barak's appeal, Lehava founder Bentzi Gopstein spoke to 103FM saying "today my wife is going out to return a girl to Judaism, [after] she was converted to Islam and was beaten in the village, if this is a terrorist organization I am ready to be a terrorist."
