israeli politicians have sometimes called for the imposition of the death penalty on specific criminals. in 2010 member of the knesset ayoub kara called for the imposition of the death penalty on the perpetrator of the tapuah junction stabbing (2010). in 2017 political figures including prime minister binyamin netanyahu called for the penalty to be imposed on the perpetrator of the 2017 halamish stabbing attack. representatives in the government plan to introduce to the knesset a bill which would allow the death penalty for terrorism. in january 2018, a bill making it easier for military courts to hand down death sentences was approved by the knesset in a preliminary vote of 52-49. prime minister netanyahu voted in favor, but later said the bill required "deeper discussion" among the ministers before being voted on again. netanyahu stated that he would be supporting a bill that would make the death penalty a common punishment. if the proposed bill becomes law, it would allow the idf military court martial in the west bank (including east jerusalem) to sentence those convicted of terrorism charges to the death penalty, only with the approval of the majority of a panel of judges.
