Rechte Politiker feiern die Abschaffung der Verwaltungshaft für Siedler

> The defense minister’s decision to end administrative detention for Israeli settlers is welcomed by right-wing politicians.
>
> Far-right National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir, a settler, celebrates. “There is a defense minister in Jerusalem!” he says. “Important and huge news… This is a correction of many years of mistreatment, and justice for those who love the land.”
>
> As a minor, Ben Gvir’s chief aide Chanamel Dorfman was the subject of administrative restraining orders, keeping him out of the West Bank due to allegations he was involved in rioting to protest the removal of illegal outposts.
>
> Finance Minster Bezalel Smotrich, a settlement advocate, says Katz “eliminated long-standing discrimination against settlers in Judea and Samaria and put an end to the injustice in which the settlers were second-class citizens and draconian and undemocratic measures were applied against them that trampled on their rights, measures that are not applied against any other population in the State of Israel except terrorists and dangerous enemies.
>
> “To the extent that such unacceptable phenomena [as settler violence] occur, God forbid, they should be handled by the police and the legal system in accordance with the procedures and rules of evidence of criminal law, just as they would be with any other citizen or population.”
>
> Smotrich’s Religious Zionism party had been pushing legislation which would forbid the use of administrative detention or administrative restraining orders against Israeli citizens, unless they were members of a certain list of terror groups.
>
> Likud MK Avichai Boaron, also a settler activist, says the move “reflects a supportive and warm approach toward the settlement movement and the settlers in Judea and Samaria. There is no doubt that this is a first sign heralding a new attitude, whose ultimate outcome will be full sovereignty over Judea and Samaria.”

Wild how this isn’t talked about in any Western sources. This is basically a removal of already insignificant legal deterrence for settlers to commit crimes. And an announcement that they’re free to do whatever they want in the WB.
