Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu condemned the statements of Otzma Yehudit MK Tzvika Fogel calling on opposition leaders to be arrested for "treason." Netanyahu spoke to President Isaac Herzog about MK Fogel's statements and told the President: "In a democratic country, you don't arrest the leaders of the opposition, just like you don't call the ministers of the government Nazis, the Jewish government the Third Reich, and the citizens don't go out for civil riots." President Isaac Herzog issued a statement calling for political rhetoric to be toned down Tuesday evening following Fogel's statements.
