Former Defense Minister MK (Machane Tzioni) Amir Peretz told Kol Berama Radio host Noam Zeigman that any family member of a terrorist who took part in an assisting in an attack, either directly or indirectly, should be expelled to Gaza. He feels this would carry a powerful deterrence for others contemplating terror attacks in the future.
Transportation Minister (Likud) Yisrael Katz remains an outspoken advocate of expelling persons involved in attacks to Gaza. However, such a policy seems to be questionable in the eyes of Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit.

Peretz, had you suggested this during the short term you were Minister of Defense you’d have at least accomplished something while you were in power. Now, sir, it’s a bit too late. Nobody’s listening to you anymore. Lost your chance.
This has to become Israel’s policy—it’s long overdue
AMEN
