The leftist Supreme Court ordered the prosecution to bring more stringent charges against an IDF soldier who shot an arrested Palestinian rioter with rubber bullets. The judges have became prosecutors.
The Kafka-esque court demanded a harsher punishment based on “Jewish and democratic values.” Democracy has nothing to do with the event, but Jewish values are clear: according to the Torah, enemies in the Land of Israel must be killed, even if they have been captured.
Shooting the arrested Arabs with rubber bullets is the only way of dissuading them from rioting. Jailing the hundreds of participants is not an option, and at any rate short sentences do not deter them.
