Israel’s Ministerial Committee for Legislation is set to discuss a bill ruling for sentencing Palestinian anti-occupation attackers to death.
The bill was forwarded to the Knesset in 2015 and received only the approbation of Israel Beytenou political party. The other parties along with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu rejected the bill.
Following the anti-occupation stabbing attack carried out in July in Halamish settlement built on Palestinian lands northwest of Ramallah Israel Beytenou forwarded the bill once again.
The proposed bill was passed on to the Legislation Committee so as to garner votes in favor of the move by next week.
The bill gives a green light to the execution of a Palestinian attacker from the occupied West Bank following instructions from the Israeli war minister.
