An Israeli parliamentary committee has advanced a bill to allow the execution of Palestinian prisoners.

Under the bill, judges would be able to impose the death penalty on Palestinians who kill Israelis based on so-called “nationalistic” motives. The law would not apply to Israelis who kill Palestinians under similar circumstances.

The bill - introduced by Limor Son Har-Melech, a lawmaker from Itamar Ben Gvir’s Otzma Yehudit party - was approved on Sunday by the Knesset’s National Security Committee, with four lawmakers voting in favour and one against.

It's like kids who got beaten up by their dads, and how they are more likely to beat their own kids.

Just... You know... Genocide...

    Except it's illegal to prove your Jewishness based on genetics in Israel. DNA tests are highly regulated and only medical and/or court order approved.

    Probably because it'd reveal that Palestinians are just as semites as the Jews that lived in these lands before.

    "The penalty for the death of any Centauri, caused by any Narn, will be the death of five hundred Narns. Including the peprpetrators own family."

    I'm going to keep quoting Babylon 5, because it feels like reality is taking notes from all the barbaric sides. We're owed some imitation of the heroes for once.
