Why is this answer correct?
Publicly calling for the destruction of Israel is incitement of the people and is punishable under Section 130 of the Criminal Code. Criticism of Israeli policy, discussions about it and hanging an Israeli flag on one's own property are protected by freedom of expression and assembly.
Calling for Israel's destruction is prohibited; political criticism is allowed.
