Justice, 'Palestinian' style: 10 years hard labor for selling land to Jews

They're going soft on 'crime' in the 'Palestinian Authority' these days. Really soft.
The Palestinian Authority Court of First Instance on Tuesday sentenced a Palestinian man to 10 years imprisonment on charges of selling land to Israel.

The accused, identified only by the initials AF, 44, from Qalqiliya in the occupied West Bank, was convicted in accordance with the 1960 article 144 of the penal code number 6.

AF's original sentence was reduced from 15 years to 10 years with manual labor.

Selling land to Israeli settlers is considered collaboration with an enemy state under the law and in Palestinian society, which deems such transactions detrimental to Palestinian national aspirations.
And they call Israel an apartheid state?

I suppose that the guy should be thankful that for now he's not being executed.

But here's the real question: If God forbid there ever is a 'state' of 'Palestine,' will it have laws like this one on the books?

Carl - your guess is as good as one.

That incidentally is one of the reasons the world wants a Palestinian state so bad - to make sure the Jews cannot settle their G-d-given land.

Let's not call it anti-Semitism.
