Israeli minister Ben Gvir calls for execution of Palestinian prisoners to ease overcrowding
Itamar Ben Gvir, Israel's far-right national security minister, has called for the execution of Palestinian prisoners to ease overcrowding in the country's jails.
Writing on social media, he welcomed a decision by the Israeli army to build 936 additional prison places for "security prisoners". "The additional construction will allow the prison service to take in more terrorists, and will bring a partial solution to the prison crisis that exists in the Shabak," he said, referring to the Israeli Prison Service.
"The death penalty for terrorists is the right solution to the incarceration problem, until then - glad that the government approved the proposal I brought."
During a visit by members of the Public Defender’s Office, squalid conditions were noted, including "intolerable overcrowding", with less than three square metres of space per person, poor sanitary conditions, pest issues, inadequate ventilation, and a lack of basic necessities for the incarcerated.
This ass hat is a complete troll. He's like Israel's Lauren Boebert. Both need to go.
Contrary to Boebert Ben Gvir is a convicted terrorist. In fact he has been indicted 53 times and convicted 7 times.
The real problem: Ben Gvir is a critical part of the coalition that keeps Netanyahu in power, meaning his has significant influence over israel law.
More fun lore:
Wow what a piece of shit.
just call it an Israeli.
took a really runny Israeli earlier.
I could live with this.
"I'm going for a banging fascist ethnostate!"
seriously I'm trying a newdiet, and its a lot rougher abd fattier, less refinement fewer carbs, those mostly in soup,and its making my Israelis super, like... not something I can handle on my own time as much as I'm used to, and runny to the point of kinda splashing in the bowl?
So he's trying to be Himmler.
no, rohm, he's the popular guy to be in this government. they all worship the man.
The difference is Bobo is a powerless rep that will lose her seat and can't stay in coalition with anyone while this guy is a minister who if I recall correctly has the portfolio of overseeing all the police in Israel.
It's a mistake to discount cabinet ministers.
Imagine if Boebert was the director of national security. This guy isn't just a troll, he is in one of the most powerful political positions in Israel. He has called for the extermination of Palestine and his views are not fringe within Israeli politics.
Very real chance he gets what he wants. Boebert's a bomb-flinging dick-sucking freak, but she's more a part of the theatrical wing of the Republican Party. The MTGs and Ben Sasses are much closer to the center of the party and hold exactly the same views.
Hey hey hey, let's not throw shade at dick suckers, they provide a valuable service
