Hostile members of government

Why does Israel accept the extreme views and actions of these Arab politicians when they are acting against her? Democracy has its limits when it becomes self destructive. The original intent of the government to protect her citizens must be the paramount consideration and everything else must come second to that. Even in America there is a limit to free speech when it infringes upon the rights and security of the population.
