Yeah.Palestinians get longer sentences just for throwing stones!huh?? the police doesn’t even have a suspect yet. what is this?Is.. he smiling?This isn’t exactly accurate. 1) The terrorist under suspicion of committing the murder of the family in the West Bank is not the man pictured above. The man pictured above is a different extremist called Meir Ettinger, who was picked up by authorities for involvement with violent settler groups. 2) The man suspected of the attack, Mordechai Meyer, has been jailed for six months without charges or a trial. That doesn’t mean there won’t be more repercussions further down the line and that he can’t be charged with a longer sentence later, it just means he’s being held under immediate administrative detention for the time being. Like, they’re scum regardless, sure, but it’s not helpful to spread misinformation.source: xThe Minister of Justice is considering leveling the death penalty on the baby killers, a punishment that literally has only ever been used on fucking EichmannI’d be OK with that, to be honest.But stay tuned for the accusations of Executionwashing.On the matter of administrative detention (technically it’s not an “arrest”): the Shin-Beit has been asking to be allowed to use this against Jewish terrorists for years, and were denied. ”Administrative detention” is arrest without trial or review date - though it does have judicial oversight - and it’s used for national-grade threats [i.e. terrorism] when there’s solid-enough intel that is, nevertheless, not acceptable in criminal court. It’s routinely used against Palestinians, to great protest - and when I say “great protest” I mean “months-long hunger strikes”. The Shin-Beit has been saying it’s necessary to effectively combat Jewish terrorism for literal years and were denied (it requires MoD authorization to just approach a judge with a request - and yeah, a high-ranking judge needs to sign on this). In the wake of the Duma murder, the Shin-Bet went WE TOLD YOU SO at the government, and Ye’elon finally caved. Three Jewish terrorists were then detained within 24hr.This is worth saying again: the Shin-Beit, with all its problems (the relevant of which are case officers who refuse to serve in the Jewish Division for “ideological reasons” and retired case officers who assist and train the terrorists), wanted to act more strongly against Jewish terrorists, and was denied by the relevant ministers. To put it more bluntly, the problem is not a lack of oversight on Israel’s security organizations, but rather excess oversight which enables political considerations to interfere with professional ones. On the matter of the death penalty, Israeli civilian (regular) law has the death penalty for only two crimes: the Nazis and their enablers, and high treason. There had only ever been two executions in Israel, one for each clause. (Meir Tobianski’s execution following a field-trial in the War of Independence was later ruled illegal, and the persons who conducted the field trial and execution were punished by law.) The definition of high treason, potentially punishable by death, has three clauses: starting a war (or enabling an enemy to, or a serious attempt to enable), assisting an enemy during a war (I’m pretty sure the language used means “war” and not any armed conflict, but I’m not a legal professional) and crimes against sovereignty. Additionally, military law has a clause that enables the death penalty for terrorists, but it requires three senior judges to agree - which has never happened, not even for the Ramallah Lynching. (There is a sufficiently-good Wikipedia article on the Ramallah lynching. I’m deliberately not supplying a link because bluntly, I don’t need to do this to myself.)So if the prosecution will demand the death penalty for a Jewish terrorist, the applicable clause would be “clause against sovereignty”; some of the persons recently arrested (before the Duma murder) were carrying manifestos calling for such purpose.The difference between actionable intelligence and criminal evidence is the reason I think the death penalty will not be sought in court. That you couldn’t get three judges to sign off on even he Ramallah lyncher is the reason I think it won’t be approved, even should it be sought. -- source link
