1. Excuse me, but ...
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (12.11.13)
... if you deliberately starve your child, to the point of deliberately disconnecting a feeding tube, you kind of forfeit your right to be a mother. I beg to differ with learned counsel. She has not paid her debt to society, in ANY imaginable aspect. She never can. Those children should be removed from her custody. Forever. It is obvious that she is not presenting herself for counseling, which was a critical element of the plea arrangement. She belongs in prison or, at a minimum, in a mental hospital.
2. 1 Sarah B, you are absolutely right

intentional child starvation by the mother is attempted murder and she should be punished accordingly.
3. They can't punish her

They can't handle the rioting. Israel is terrified of the violence committed by the ultra-orthodox. Just like Detroit, USA, the natives are restless and violent and the cops are too afraid to do anything about it.
