Backlash was immediate and Golan removed the tweet moments after it was posted.
Following the harsh criticism, Golan tweeted a clarification, saying, "Let's be clear: I don't propose denying treatment to any Israeli, but the situation in which there are those who obey only the laws they wish or go against the state and its institutions is intolerable."
