New laws discourage citizens of "enemy of the State" demanding Israel

AppId is over the quota AppId is over the quota
seorang musuh negara tak pernah memiliki hak untuk tampil di pengadilan Israel.
Jerusalem (News and Us) - Anggota Knesset (Parlemen) Israel memberi suara yang mendukung rancangan peraturan yang akan melarang warga dari "negara musuh" menuntut negeri tersebut, demikian laporan Jerusalem Post, Rabu.

Peraturan tersebut diberi nama "Dirani Bill", yang merujuk kepada gerilyawan Lebanon Mustafa Dirani --yang saat ini menuntut ganti rugi dari Israel.


Dirani, mantan anggota milisi Syiah di Lebanon, diculik oleh personel pasukan komando Israel pada 1994, sewaktu ia diduga mengetahui nasib pilot Angkatan Udara Israel Ron Arad --yang ditangkap oleh anggota milisi Dirani satu dasawarsa sebelumnya.


Ia ditahan di kamar tahanan terpencil sebagai kartu-tawar buat warganegara Israel itu. Namun ia disiksa oleh para penangkapnya dan bersaksi di satu pengadilan Israel atas penyiksaan tersebut.


Dirani dibebaskan dari penjara pada 2004, sebagai bagian dari kesepakatan pertukaran tahanan. Pada 2000, ia menuntut negara Israel sebesar enam juta shekel (1,67 juta dolar AS) dalam satu gugatan yang diajukan ke Pengadilan Wilayah Tel Aviv.


Peraturan baru tersebut, yang mulanya diusulkan oleh anggota parlemen "hawkish" Ayelet Shaked --dari Partai Jewish Home-- dan David Rotem dari Partai Yisrael Beytenu, disahkan dengan 55 anggota parlemen mendukung dan 23 menentang, demikian laporan Xinhua.


Menurut rancangan peraturan itu, peraturan tersebut mengikuti langkah negara lain Barat.


"Berdasarkan prinsip yang diterima ini, seorang musuh negara tak pernah memiliki hak untuk tampil di pengadilan Israel," demikian antara lain isi rancangan peraturan itu.


"Selama ada keadaan perang antara Israel dan negara lain, seorang warga dari negara itu yang terlibat dalam kegiatan teror tak bisa menuntut Israel," katanya.


Sebaliknya, anggota kelompok sayap-kiri di Knesset Tamar Zandberg --dari Partai Meretz-- yang menentang rancangan tersebut, mengatakan warga dari negara musuh yang disiksa di Israel masih memiliki hak, tak peduli apa kondisi diplomatik dengan negara yang bersangkutan.

Tim Pawlenty supports former enemy Mitt Romney

Former Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty was an early from the 2012 GOP presidential race, but his approval on Monday the former Governor of Massachusetts Mitt Romney suggests that he is still the hope, effect on the results.

[Find a slide show: who is from the 2012 race?]

On Fox and friends Monday morning, announced Pawlenty his election 2012, that Romney is "one candidate in this race, which is second to none in his abilities and his experience and his talent when it comes to revolve around this economy and grow jobs." Pawlenty, who is now the Romney campaign of national co-chair, tagged also Romney of private-sector experience and his work on the Winter Olympics 2002 in an op ed on the national review website.

Pawlenty was next in the race, he made waves health criticize Massachusetts law, which has signed Romney, he was Governor, referring as "Obamneycare." (Although in a debate in June damage Pawlenty perhaps his own chances by support from the "Obamneycare" comment and missing opportunity to strongly against Romney, come at the time the GOP leader.) Now, his endorsement could explain this dynamic a little bit better, says Larry Sabato, Director of the Center for politics, University of Virginia. "He secretly it liked," says Sabato.

In fact, when asked on the "Obamneycare" comment Monday, he defended the position of President Romney health care legislation. "Mitt Romney is dedicated and committed to repeal the Obamacare to 100 percent," said Pawlenty. "I know and trust, that is, what he will do."

"Note rarely role", says Sabato. And in particular for approval by Pawlenty, considered in the national polls and had a poor result at the Ames straw poll earlier this year might be the case. Also Romney was the natural choice for Pawlenty, who were billed as such had the more moderate conservative candidates in the GOP field, Sabato says.

The confirmation can be also a sign that is Pawlenty positioning, on the ticket with Romney as Vice President. However, in his interview, Fox and friends Monday Pawlenty denied that is, what he had in mind. "I will not even consider," he said.
