We need here unanimity among the judges, but they also want to know the government’s position. “And my position as prime minister, in this case, of such a despicable murderer, is that you must execute him,” the prime minister stated.The terrorist “should not smile any more,” he added, likely referring to a photo of the murderer smiling in a Jerusalem hospital bed, where Al-Abed was being treated for gunshot wounds. An off-duty soldier and neighbor of the victims, upon hearing the screams, ran to the scene and shot him, thus preventing the slaughter of several more family members, including five children who are now orphaned.Read Netanyahu and Trump discuss US-Israel relations and the Iranian threatBy: Adina Katz, World Israel News NetanyahuPalestinian terrorSalomon family
