MK Ayelet Shaked (Jewish Home) said Monday that despite the postponement of the vote on the “terrorist pardon bill,” Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu intends to bring it for a vote in the diplomacy-security cabinet next week.

In a Channel 10 interview, Shaked also mentioned the Shamgar Committee on terrorist deals, whose recommendations would also be discussed in the upcoming debate, according to Netanyahu.

"We've been waiting for conclusions from the committee for a year and a half now,” she stated. “Netanyahu promised [Jewish Home head] Naftali Bennett that it will come up for a vote.”

The government had been expected to approve the law, which could prevent future mass releases of terrorists. Proposed by MK Shaked, it would allow a court to write into its sentence of a terrorist a clause that would prevent the President from signing off on his pardon in the future.

Well, goodie!:eusa_clap:
 
Congress can make such laws, and the President, as commander in chief, has the authority to veto them.

End of story.
