By killing people of course!! These people are truly animals and cockroaches, and they and all their supporters should be the ones on the receiving end of their murderous ways. I can't wait till the day comes that they finally push Israel too far and the land of Israel increases in size while the population of the area decreases. Stick that in your pipe and smoke it, terrorists.
The Hamas authorities in Gaza must halt several executions they say they plan to carry out after this week’s Muslim religious festival of Eid al-Fitr, Amnesty International has urged.
Hamas’ Attorney General said last week that several convicted “criminals” are set to be executed in public as a “lesson” to others.
“This and other recent announcements by Hamas authorities that they will carry out further executions are deeply disturbing,” said Philip Luther, Director of the Middle East and North Africa Programme at Amnesty International.
“We acknowledge the right and responsibility of governments to bring to justice those suspected of criminal offences, but the death penalty is cruel and inhuman, and there is no evidence that it deters crime more effectively than other punishments.”
One of those at risk is a 27-year-old man known as “H.M.A.” who, while detained in relation to another case, was apparently tortured to “confess” to the rape and murder of a six-year-old boy allegedly committed when H.M.A. was under18.
He was later sentenced to death in violation of both international standards and Palestinian law, which do not allow capital punishment for killings committed by people under 18.
A 23-year-old prisoner known as “F.A.” is also said to have signed a “confession” under torture.
He was sentenced to death on 24 March 2013 for “collaboration with an enemy entity” by the Central Military Court in Gaza City.
According to his lawyer, he appeared in court weeping and with a bruised face. He told his lawyer that he had been hung by his wrists and ankles and beaten during interrogation.
His appeal at the Military High Court is due to be heard on 14 August. If it is unsuccessful, he will be at risk of imminent execution.
At least 40 prisoners are under sentence of death in Gaza, where torture and other ill-treatment against detainees in the custody of Hamas security agencies are widespread and systematic.
The Ministry of Interior this week backed up the Attorney General’s threats to hold executions when a spokesperson confirmed the Minister’s readiness to carry out “public” executions to deter “offenders who seek to disrupt the security of society”.
