Dr. Mordechai Keidar, is a difficult figure to put your finger on. He is a lecturer on Arabic literature at Bar Ilan University. He is considered an expert on the Israeli Palestinian population of Israel.

But Keidar is also well known for his extreme right wing views.

In an interview conducted by the Israeli Broadcasting authority, Keidar gave after the finding of the three bodies of Naftali Fraenkel, Gilad Shaer and Eyal Yifrah (July 1, 2014), the otherwise distinguished professor said what he believes is the truth about “Middle Eastern culture.”

Specifically, Keidar claims that ”A terrorist, like those who kidnapped the boys and killed them, the only thing that will deter them, is if they know that either their sister or mother will be raped if they are caught.”

Keidar: “A terrorist, like those who kidnapped the boys and killed them, the only thing that will deter them, is if they know that either their sister or mother will be raped if they are caught. What can we do? This is the culture that we live in –“

Interviewer, Yossi Hadar: “—Yes, this sounds bad, but…”

Keidar: “It sounds very bad, but this is a lesson. This is the Middle East. Only the knowledge that –

Hadar: “Well, we can’t do things like this –“

Keidar: “I’m telling you, I’m talking about them, I’m not talking about what we can do or not do. I’m telling you what they live in. This is the only thing that deters a suicide bomber. If he knows that when he pulls the trigger, or blows himself up, his sister will be raped. That’s it. That’s the only thing that will bring him back home, to keep the honor of his sister. This is the culture of the Middle East. I didn’t create it, but this is the situation.”

Keidar’s employer, Bar Ilan University claims that he “used the example of rape as an exaggeration”. But reading the transcript above, it is clear exactly what professor Keidar was saying.
