Government opposed taking away terrorists' citizenship

After the Jerusalem terrorist attack, Kadima and Avodah parties agreed to the bill they have opposed just a day ago. Edelstein’s (Likud) bill would strip members of Palestinian terrorist organizations of Israeli citizenship. Kadima, Avodah initially opposed the bill in order to avoid alienating their Arab voters.
The bill violates human rights, as no one can be stripped of his citizenship.
