Palestinian officials called the decision a "black day for human rights" and said they might file a complaint with the UN Security Council and the International Criminal Court. Ah yes! I see a pattern forming! 'I don't like what my sovereign national Supreme Court sez, so I'm going to the ICC!!'
Grand. The ICC could turn every legal issue in the world into a Floriduh-supreme-court-type fiasco. Scary.
Other things to note:
- The Israeli Judiciary is putting restrictions on what the IDF can and cannot do _EVEN IN TIMES OF OBVIOUS WAR_. As opposed to our administration which advocates extra-judicial detention in certain conditions, when we are certainly under less seige than Israel.
- The families are being expelled from a REFUGEE camp for being a potential danger. Not for being an accessory to murder, but only if the IDF proves that they might be a future threat to security.
So on the one hand, their judiciary reigns in the military, and at the same time, they participate in the prevention of "future crimes." A mixed bag fer sure.
Justice would see these families as accessories to murder dance on the end of a rope for all potential "future threats" to see!
It is a bit different in this case. Think about it this way - the families of these bombers are
potential beneficiaries of the crime. Particularly, as according to this standard, if they actively help in the crime, surely some punishment should befall them? Expulsion in light of this is mild.
