Following the Koran in Sweden, they want to publicly burn a scroll of the Torah.

In Sweden, they got a taste of the destruction of sacred scriptures: following the Koran, which Danish extremist Rasmus Paludan burned in front of the Turkish embassy in Stockholm, demonstrators filed a request to the country's authorities for the public burning of a Torah scroll in protest against Israeli policies.

It is not yet known what officials said to the protesters, but in Israel they believe that permission can be given, as the protesters appeal to the law on freedom of expression.

“I think it's a shocking thing, there's a difference between freedom of speech and burning the Torah. We don't need clearer reminders of the well-known proverb that "where books are burned, people will also be burned there," Swedish newspaper Världen Idag quoted Israel's envoy to the UN Gilad Erdan as saying.

It is noteworthy that after the action to burn the Koran, the Israelis remained silent.

The Torah scroll is the main sacred object in Judaism and is intended for public reading in the synagogue.
