Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir filmed himself waking to the sound of the adhan and vowed to silence mosques across occupied Palestine, calling the call to prayer an unbearable disturbance to his sleep.
His proposed legislation would ban mosque loudspeakers without permits and grant police the power to seize sound equipment on the spot.
The same government conducting nightly bombardments of civilian areas in Gaza is concerned about noise.
The hypocrisy requires no commentary.
