'For about two years I didn't wear a kippah'

Bennett corrected Dayan's assertion that he experienced a crisis of faith. "I never felt like I was having a crisis - I simply removed my kippa," Bennett asserted.

Bennett said that he returned to religion after witnessing the anti-religious sentiment that was rife in Israel after Prime Minister Yitzchak Rabin was killed in 1995 by an Orthodox Jew. "I was already a Company Commander when Rabin was assassinated, an admired commander I would say," he recalled. "There was a very difficult period after the murder. It was as if the entire religious world was blamed for it."

  1. If all he did was remove his kippa, then how could he have "returned to religion?"
    Just tell the truth, who really cares about his personal journey? What matters is where he stands now. We see that he stands for coalitions with Islamist parties. That's all we need to know.
