An awful lot of what comes out of Palestinian journalists is incitement. Is it any surprise that something is being done about it?

Boy, that's quite a loaded statement considering many Israeli politicians have also repeatedly called for the genocide of Palestinians (http://mondoweiss.net/2015/05/netanyahu-palestinians-governm...). I'm quite surprised nothing is being done about that.

Shaked (an Israeli minister) posted (and thus endorsed) a text that calls for genocide.

While many Israeli politicians are terrible, I don't think that single endorsement substantiates your claim that "many Israeli politicans have repeatedly called ...". Even that single endorsement was deleted by Shaked.

If even politicians at the highest levels of government are doing it, let alone hate groups inside Israel, it doesn't help the case of Israeli objectivity.

I didn't say Israel is objective. But the parent post is taking a true point and hyperboling it into a total lie. Israel is bad enough without the lies trying to make it seem even worse -- discrediting its detractors.

Mondoweiss? That's an extremely biased source. It's propaganda, not journalism.

Yes. Namely the fact that "incitement" isn't a crime everywhere (and shouldn't be a crime anywhere), whereas apparently the retaliation for doing so is.
