The Knesset tonight (Monday) approved in first reading the bill to deny citizenship and deport terrorists.
The bill, which was supported by 89 MKs from all factions of the House, states that the Minister of the Interior will revoke the citizenship or residency of a terrorist convicted of a terrorist offense and who received funds from the Palestinian Authority, and he will be deported to the territories of the Palestinian Authority as well as to the Gaza Strip. The
denial of citizenship and the deportation will be approved by the Minister of the Interior, the Minister of Justice And the court within limited times - the Minister of the Interior will be obliged to approve within 14 days, the Minister of Justice within 7 days and the court within 30 days.
The explanation for the proposal reads: "These days, many people who hold Israeli citizenship or residency actually receive monthly salaries from the Palestinian Authority as wages and compensation for committing acts of terrorism. These salaries gradually increase with the seniority of the people in prison. It is unthinkable that citizens and residents of Israel not only Those who betrayed the Israeli state and society, but even agreed to receive payment from the Palestinian Authority as a reward for carrying out the act of terrorism and continue to benefit from it, will continue to hold Israeli citizenship or residency.
A citizen or resident of the State of Israel who has agreed to receive payment from the Palestinian Authority, directly or through a foreign body, as a reward or reward for committing an act of terrorism or another offense that seriously harms the security of the state, such as himself testifying that he renounces his status as a citizen or resident. Additional seriousness And decisive is that the same citizen or resident of the state, who enjoys all the rights granted to him by the state, commits a terrorist offense and receives compensation from the PA, as a reward for carrying out the act of terrorism."
"Moral duty to bereaved families".

According to the proposal, which is led by the chairman of the coalition, MK Ofir Katz, the receipt of the funds creates a basis for an affinity between the terrorist and the Palestinian Authority, and therefore the State of Israel will deport him to the territories of the Palestinian Authority as well as to the Gaza Strip.
According to data presented by the security establishment during the discussions, approximately 70% of the terrorists who receive compensation from the Palestinian Authority have residency status.
The chairman of the coalition, MK Ofir Katz: "Last weekend, my heart was torn, for me and for all the people of Israel. When you bow your head to terrorism, you get more terrorism, we will respond with a strong hand. We have a public and moral duty to every bereaved family - to pass the law This. It is not possible that while our sisters and brothers are bleeding to death, candy will be handed out across the road. Damned terrorists will not be here, their place is in Gaza."
