Audio and video recordings aired by Israeli Channel 13 revealed two senior rabbis at a military-linked religious academy in the occupied West Bank making racist remarks against non-Jews and Arabs, defending Jewish supremacy and expressing support for elements of Adolf Hitler's worldview.
Recordings published by Israeli Channel 13 have sparked outrage after exposing extremist remarks by two prominent rabbis affiliated with the Bnei David pre-military religious academy in the illegal settlement of Eli in the occupied West Bank.
In one of the recordings, Rabbi Eliezer Kashtiel, head of the academy, is heard describing non-Jews, particularly Arabs, as genetically inferior and advocating their enslavement under Jewish authority.
"Non-Jews want to be our slaves," Kashtiel tells an audience in the footage. "Being a slave to a Jew is the best thing. They are happy to be slaves; they want to be slaves."
He goes on to claim that Arabs possess "genetic problems" and are incapable of governing themselves.
