Justice Minister Tzipi Livni is taking steps toward her stated goal of eliminating price tag activity, in which IDF or Arab-owned property is damaged. The Cabinet will decide this week whether or not to label price tag activity terrorism.
Categorizing price tag attackers as terrorists would in theory expand government authorities ability to punish them.
In reality, the change in name would be a big joke, attorney and land of Israel activist Itamar Ben-Gvir told Arutz Sheva.
The Order for Prevention of Terrorism allows the police to act against terrorist organizations, to close their offices or bank accounts like they did unjustly to Kahane Chai, he explained. But here, if there are price tag activists, what will they do, close the regional Price Tag offices? There is no such thing.
