Israel's Knesset Advances Death Penalty Bill for Individuals Charged With Terrorism
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Israel's parliament has advanced a bill that would introduce the death
penalty for individuals charged with terrorism against the state, and
against those who kill Israelis. Critics of the bill point out that the
law would only apply to Palestinians charged with terrorism, and not
Jewish extremists who target Palestinians.
