Members of Otzma Yehudit have worn noose-shaped pins in support of the bill.
Under the proposals, those sentenced to death would be held in a separate facility with no visits except from authorised personnel, with legal consultations conducted only by video link. Executions would be carried out within 90 days of sentencing.
The measure allows courts to impose the death penalty without a request from prosecutors, and without requiring unanimity, instead permitting a simple majority decision. Military courts in the occupied West Bank would also be empowered to hand down death sentences, with the defence minister able to submit an opinion.
For Palestinians under occupation, the bill would close off avenues for appeal or clemency, while prisoners tried inside Israel could see their sentences commuted to life imprisonment.
Jesus christ how long until they just fire up the gas chambers and skip this song and dance of a trial where the defendant gets no appeals, limited legal counsel, no unanimous decision, and no prosecutorial discretion? These politicians are absolutely disgusting.
