Residents of Itamar settlement: 'Price tag' isn't even part of our lexicon
Excerpt:

If someone is expecting a revenge attack or "price tag" – they won't find it here, at the yeshiva where Fogel taught, whose chief rabbi is Avihai Ronski, the former IDF Chief Rabbi.

"These people don't go out and demonstrate, that's not their style," says Yohanan Goldin, a 24-year-old sixth-year yeshiva student. Goldin was close to Fogel, and was part of the community security team that was called in to find that Fogel was killed.

A day and a half after the attack, Goldin feels the need to improve the public image of the community, and perhaps the yeshiva, as well. "'Price tags" are not the way of the yeshiva," he said.

Goldin's friend, fifth-year yeshiva student Itamar Brooker, says, "Anger does not interest us, people aren't hung up on that. There is pain, there is shock, but not anger. Personally, I still haven’t taken it in. A family has been stabbed to death, it will take time to register."
