Israeli High Court rejects petition to declare home demolitions illegal
2015-03-27
[JP] The High Court of Justice on Wednesday rejected multiple petitions to ban the demolitions of houses belonging to terrorists.

The rejected petitions included one banning all demolitions, and those attempting to block the demolition of the houses of the bulldozer driver in an August 4 terrorist incident and the terrorists in the Har Nof synagogue terrorist attack in which five Israelis were killed in November.

However, the court temporarily froze the order to demolish the home of the terrorist who shot and seriously wounded Temple Mount activist Yehudah Glick in October.

The petitioners had argued that just because the court has accepted demolitions as legal for decades, that does not mean it cannot ban them, citing the court's famous torture ban decision as one of many examples.

#1  In the US we would just seize their homes and sell them for profit. Wouldn't even need a criminal conviction.
