Existential fear, confusion and ideology are behind this latest attempt by the Knesset to curb criticism and free speech The flood of anti-democratic laws that were proposed, and partially implemented, by the current Knesset, elected in February 2009, constitute one of the darkest chapters in Israeli history.
