Intelligence Minister: Allow Deportation of Terrorists’ Families

Jerusalem, 28 February, 2016 (TPS) -- Intelligence Minister Yisrael Katz said Sunday, February 28 that he would contact fellow lawmakers in an effort to change the law that prevents deportation of terrorists’ families to Gaza or Syria.

“Our job in the government is to save lives, and deportation will lower the motivation of these teenagers to carry out attacks,” said Katz at the beginning of the weekly cabinet meeting. “I’m sure that after deporting a few families, this lone-wolf terror wave will stop. This is our duty.”
