Kahanism: Difference between revisions

After the massacre, there were several inspired incidents, which took place in the USA and Israel. Kach was classified as a terrorist organization and its members form prisoners, in addition to being repudiated by Israeli politicians and public, so much so that Netanyahu stated that ''"This was a despicable crime. I express my unequivocal condemnation"''. Hamas also began targeting innocent civilians in Israel because of the massacre, fueling extremism. Even though he was widely repudiated by Jews, there were some more extremists who began to venerate and worship the figure of Goldstein, calling him the "hero of Israel", in addition to having created a shrine in his tomb, which was later removed for fear of extremism.
