As he walked out of the gates of the prison where he was held, Ginsburgh was met by his students, who were singing and dancing.
Arutz Sheva asked Ginsburgh a few quick questions about his arrest. Here is how Ginsburgh explained it:
"A book that was written in the yeshiva that is trying to convey to the public – especially the soldiers in the army – the true ethics of self defense according to the Torah, not to be led astray and not to endanger lives of soldiers because of false ethical morals that are not coming from a Jewish place."
When Arutz Sheva asked Ginsburgh if the police claimed he was calling for murder, Ginsburgh replied:
"They [the police] themselves know they don't understand what is written in the book."
In other words, Ginsburgh claims the police misunderstood what was written in a book that was published with the general, non-Orthodox public in mind, a book meant for the average army soldier – something every police officer once was.
The book clearly advocates targeting Arab civilians, not as the unavoidable casualties of a carefully fought war, but as a first option if doing so will possibly save even one Jewish life.
The book even says that Arab babies can be killed because they will likely grow up to be adults who hate Jews.
Ginsburgh goes on to say that:
"The lesson is we have to clarify ourselves even better and we have to reach the general public and we have to address and to relate to the public with darchei noam, which means in pleasant and sweet ways, in order to give the light of the Torah and true ethics of the Torah to the general public and the whole world."
Apparently Ginsburgh believes a policy of the intentional murder of Arab babies is a true representation of the Torah and its ethics.
