Cabinet ministers from Likud have recently suggested that one of the measures that may be taken to deter future terror attacks is the deportation of the families of terrorists. According to a Galei Tzahal (Army Radio) report, this idea was rejected recently by Attorney General Dr. Avichai Mandelblit, who stated the concept is contrary to Israeli and international law and therefore, it is not being considered.
The idea was supported by ministers, however Mandelblit says it does not hold water legally and therefore, not being considered.
The matter was raised by the ministers amid a growing feeling that razing the homes of the terrorists is not serving as a deterrent, especially since it has been learned the PA (Palestinian Authority) and Iran offer the families of the terrorists’ monthly compensation and vow to rebuild their homes if razed by Israel.
