Israel Convicts Jewish Cop For Stopping Arab Criminal

ISRAEL CONVICTS JEWISH COP FOR STOPPING ARAB CRIME

A Jewish policeman in Israel pursued a car thief. The thief tried to
stab him. In self-defense, the cop shot him. The cop was indicted.
You see, the thief is an Arab. Israeli prosecutors do not much expect
Arabs to obey the law, and do not want Jews to enforce the law against
Arabs. That is the Law of the Left.

The judge second-guessed the officer, and convicted him. (Israel does
not have trial-by-jury.) The judge ruled that the officer could have
subdued the suspect without firing at him or could have fired non-
fatally.

The officer was sentenced to 15 months in a common prison, perhaps
amidst criminals he had apprehended. Imagine their welcome to him!

The family of the thief complained that the sentence was too short.
They said that if the thief were Jewish, the sentence would have been
longer. More likely, the court would have found that the cop was just
doing his job. In fact, he is a hero (Prof. Steven Plaut, 9/4).

Prof. Plaut cites another example, among several I have reported: a
Jewish farmer was convicted, but released on appeal, for shooting at
Bedouin rustlers.

Think of the indignant parents of “our son the thief!”
