The Times of Israel said: The national religious, however, hitchhike as a statement of ownership, said Yair. “They’re saying, ‘it’s our state and no one will stop us or scare us,’” he said. “It’s a guerrilla stance.”

Funny, I would never allow a child of mine to take his chances just to prove who owns the land. BUT if it were me... If I was young enough and managed to move to Judea or Samaria, I think I would hitchhike everywhere.

But maybe not at night!

I never thought of it as asserting any political statement. Jews do it. Arabs do it. We both know how to distinguish the one from the other. Just as it would be difficult for a Jew to pass as an Arab, it is also difficult for Arabs to pass as Jews, so kidnappings and assaults are a rarity. Body language, accent, cultural background are almost always a dead giveaway. Also, despite all the hoopla, most Arabs have lives, families to support, bills to pay, and are not out looking for trouble, even if they do celebrate obscenely with the rest of their fellow death cultists whenever children are murdered.
