Israel discusses approving the death penalty against Palestinians
The Hebrew Channel 13 reported that the Israeli National Security Council will hold deliberations this week about imposing the death penalty on the perpetrators. It is noteworthy that these are preliminary deliberations in preparation for the deliberations that will be conducted by the Mini Ministerial Council for Security and Political Affairs on this issue.
It is also mentioned that the chances of approving the imposition of this punishment are not high, but discussing this issue in the current conditions and in light of international criticism of Israel is very complicated. Senior Israeli officials said: "This may lead to international criticism of Israel, which is indispensable these days."
The channel wondered, why is this happening now? It responded: It is possible that this is due to political reasons, as National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir demanded that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu hold the mini-ministerial council for these deliberations, and the latter responded to this request.
