During his weekly lesson, the rabbi said "Abu Mazen and all those evil men – may they perish from this world. May God Almighty strike them and these Palestinians."
As Shas' spiritual leader, Yosef's words are another indication of the party's leaning right. Just last week, Chairman Eli Yishai said he would firmly object to an extension of the settlement construction freeze in the West Bank. He also said he was hanging no hopes on the renewed negotiations because he does not foresee in the near future a Palestinian government with which an agreement can be reached.
A senior official in the Palestinian Authority refused to comment on Yosef's remarks and told Ynet, "Even in Israel they have stopped paying attention to him."
