The Jerusalem Magistrate’s Court on Sunday sentenced the chasan from the “hate wedding” to four months of community service, probation and a fine.
A year ago, the chasan and six other men were convicted of inciting violence and terror for their involvement in a 2015 wedding in which participants celebrated the Duma arson attack that killed a Palestinian toddler and his parents.
A second defendant was sentenced to 180 hours of community service, probation and a fine. The five other defendants have not yet been sentenced.
Attorney Moshe Pulaski of the Honenu legal aid organization attacked the court’s decision, saying: “We believe that this case is all political persecution by the prosecutor’s office. The court adopted the prosecution’s absurd thesis that it saw the event as a demonstration of incitement. This indictment should never have happened.”
“The incident [at the wedding] was disrespectful but it was a spontaneous act without any intention of incitement. The entire event was a protest against the ‘required interrogations’ which included physical measures used by the Shin Bet against Amiram Ben-Uliel and other boys who were in the basements of the Shin Bet at the time. It was convenient for the state authorities to divert media pressure from this illegal activity of the Shin Bet to an event that should not have happened but does not cross the criminal threshold. In light of all that has been said, we will consider whether to appeal the verdict and the sentence.”

I’m lost on that one, things are getting wild.
“Uliel was also subject to religious harassment “by the intentional and prolonged playing of women’s singing and a woman’s intentional touching of the plaintiff’s body.” Shin bet humour: play him celine dion and cuddle him. Uliel: It’s gonna be a 5 millions shekel lawsuit!
It’s more like white wedding billy idol song
Like it was enough, the type of actions committed by Uliel are the ones that increase anti semitism and lead to portray israelis as monters, that was a great Hillul Hashem and that katan getting married in that spirit is just another mentally ill dude who must seek help for mental disability
They hand out candies and you punish our boys our men…..wow, I wonder how harsh Hashem will be with you, these monsters give out candies and cake and display a sense of ceremony and what dod you do …..you give them gifts….
very sad
Are they now going to arrest every Arab who hands sweets out in celebration of terrorism
Oh
And every Arab who takes a sweet
This is where the liberal leftist court needs to be balanced by changing the way they are appointed
nice start, now arrest the rest of the guests.
The actions of Ben Uliel increase respect of the goyim for us. They understand only strength.
It would criminalise millions
Instead of building prisons let’s give Gaza to Egypt and Yehuda &Shomron to the Jordanians
In one minute we will all see where the Arabs really stand on their own brethren’s safety and security
Both countries will reject the offer immediately!!!!
May he service be on of helping his family friends community. A gift. May this who danced about welcome nothing and receive Zero
