Entités associées: Lehava - Ben-Zion “Bentzi” Gopstein, qui vit dans la colonie de Kiryat Arba (Cisjordanie), est le fondateur et dirigeant de l’organisation extrémiste Lehava, émanation du mouvement kahaniste, dont l’objectif est de “lutter contre l’assimilation en Terre sainte”. Ben-Zion “Bentzi” Gopstein prône une vision privant tous les Palestiniens de leurs droits et appelle à la fin de la présence palestinienne en Israël et dans les territoires palestiniens. Ben-Zion “Bentzi” Gopstein a ouvertement appelé à une guerre contre les Palestiniens. La Cour suprême d’Israël lui a interdit de se présenter aux élections de la Knesset de 2019 au motif qu’il “incitait systématiquement au racisme contre la population arabe”. Ben-Zion “Bentzi” Gopstein est responsable d’atteintes systématiques et graves aux droits de l’homme consistant à appeler à la haine nationale, raciale ou religieuse, ce qui constitue une incitation à la discrimination, à l’hostilité ou à la violence. Ces atteintes suscitent également de graves préoccupations au regard des objectifs de la politique étrangère et de sécurité commune énoncés à l’article 21 du traité sur l’Union européenne.
