Meanwhile, let us not forget that the Israelis have been treating wounded Syrian children in Israeli hospitals...
Well, there are many decent people in Israel who do not care about some weird religious laws.
I admire such people. But are the actions of these people supported by the state?
Ovadia Yosef (the most prominent Rabbi that recently died in Israel, who was called by Netanyahu "our great teacher") declared in his public statements that it it forbidden for Jews to save the life of non-Jews on Sabbath.
And the son and student of Ovadia Yosef, Ya'akov, wrote a preface to the book, called "King's Torah", and in this book they say that it is permissible to kill the children of Palestinians, because these children may become terrorists.
Yitzhak Shapira is an Israeli rabbi who lives in the West Bank Israeli settlement Yitzhar[1] and is head of the Od Yosef Chai Yeshiva.[2]
In 2009 he published a book (The King's Torah) in which he writes that it is permissible for Jews to kill non-Jews (including children) who threaten the lives of Jews.[3][4] The book states "There is a reason to kill babies [on the enemy side] even if they have not transgressed the seven Noahide Laws because of the future danger they may present, since it is assumed that they will grow up to be evil like their parents."[5]

Yosef was arrested on 3 July 2011 on suspicion of incitement to racism for his endorsement of the book The King's Torah, after he failed to report to the police for questioning, and released shortly thereafter.[7] The arrest and questioning sparked protests among his supporters.[8]

Ovadia Yosef himself told following:
It is forbidden to be merciful to them. You must send missiles to them and annihilate them. They are evil and damnable. […] The Lord shall return the Arabs' deeds on their own heads, waste their seed and exterminate them...

To waste the seed of Arabs means to kill their children.
The most prominent Israeli Rabbi (who is considered to be one of the most great experts of Jewish religious laws in the last 100 years) openly endorses the extermination of Arabs, including their children!!!
And he gets away with it!
These guys were never sued in Israel for spreading hate, and Ovadia Yosef got the most huge funeral since the creation of Israel.
Ovadia Yosef never condemned the The King's Torah, and he never condemned his son for endorsing this hate book.
