Ben Gvir wears noose lapel pin as he pushes death penalty bill for Palestinians https://tankie.tube/videos/watch/417ca095-56d3-4294-ac38-eaccec51846a Israel’s far-right national security minister, Itamar Ben Gvir, wore a noose lapel pin to the parliament on Monday, as he continues to push for Palestinian prisoners to be handed the death penalty. Ben Gvir boasted about wearing the pin, along with other members of his Otzma Yehudit party, in support of death penalty legislation currently passing through the parliament. If enacted, it would allow judges to impose the death penalty on Palestinians convicted of killing Israelis on so-called “nationalistic” grounds. The legislation would not apply to Israelis who kill Palestinians under similar circumstances. The bill now requires two more readings in the Knesset before it can become an official law.
