  1. SPC 1

    The nationalist and social conservative right now see a new order, where the EU (secular liberal left) and China are the outliers.

    The Israeli parliament has passed a law allowing the government to deport the family members of people convicted of terrorism offences, including Israeli citizens.

    The controversial legislation, proposed by a member of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's Likud party, applies to first-degree relatives, meaning the parents, siblings or children of those found guilty of committing or supporting terrorism.

    Israeli human rights organisations say the law is unconstitutional.

    Some opposition members of the Knesset, Israel's parliament, suggested it is targeted only at Palestinian citizens of Israel, sometimes called Israeli Arabs.

    […]

    Relatives would be deported by order of the interior minister. Some members of the Knesset suggested during the debate on the bill that it would not be used against Jewish Israeli citizens, the Times of Israel website reported.

    “Yigal Amir’s family will not be deported anywhere," said opposition member of parliament Merav Michaeli, referring to former Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin's assassin, a Jewish extremist.
