The PA (Palestinian Authority) leadership in Ramallah has released messages of outrage after a 13-year-old Arab terrorist who was found guilty of attempted murder was sentenced to 12 years imprisonment by an Israeli court.
In the official PA statement, the sentence was condemned, describing it as contrary to international law and a gross violation of children’s rights.
The young terrorist took part in a stabbing attack in northern Jerusalem in 2015 in which two people were seriously wounded. His accomplice, a 15-year-old cousin, was shot dead by security personnel during the attack.
This is the same PA leadership which feels the death penalty is reasonable if a resident is learned to have sold land to Jews.

The PA is right. We should learn from them. Throw him off a building.
I decry this too. Am also outraged. Not long enough. Throw him way below ground. Permanently. He needs not ever see the light of day. This is a crime perpetrated by a non-child, all you international law idiots. The only child who suffered a “gross violation of children’s rights” was the victim. Zehu.
Cut of both his arms at the shoulder and send him back. Why should we have to feed him?
If the PA thinks this is a violation of his rights, we should put his parents in jail instead.
Why doesn’t Israel pacify the PA, and apply Shariah law to the criminal?
Beheading or hanging?
