The Israeli Prison Service has begun preparations to introduce the death penalty for Palestinian prisoners, Israeli media reported on Sunday.
According to Israel’s Channel 13, preparations include the creation of a facility dubbed “Israel’s Green Mile”, where executions will take place
The report added that executions will be carried out by hanging, with three guards pressing the trigger simultaneously.
Specialist teams, composed entirely of volunteers, will be assigned to the task.
Anything can be called terrorism by legal definitions, and that’s the way lawmakers want it. Any crime to further a political motive, or to influence anyone by fear. At least in part. It’s very broad and anyone pretending it’s not ripe for abuse has no credibility.
