1. We can count on our Supreme Court to discriminate against
(12.15.17)
state each & every time.
Like ordering demolition of whole houses when they encroach on 10cm. of "Palestinian" ground, while Bedouin&Arab stealing of rightfully owned/registered Jewish land is met with a shrug...This is the sorry state of "our" State.
Clean these stables Mr. PM!
2. The diseased branch of our judiciary system called Supreme
Delphi   (12.15.17)
Court has to be amputated/cut off and instead we must plant a fresh, healthy sapling....
They rule like a separate entity, true Kings of the Castle.
Examples of one-sided rulings are numerous and always in favor of our Arab enemy.
This has to be stopped and it won't happen by itself.
3. max IQ
Moshe Benyamin ,   Springfield   (12.15.17)
Is It in the job description that you cannot have an IQ. over 80 if you want to be on the High Court?
4. In this case dump bodies in the sea for fish or burn them
Steve Benassi ,   Minneapolis USA   (12.15.17)
5. HCJ, once again abusing power
C   (12.15.17)
hcj has no jurisdiction over bodies of enemy terrorists.

hcj has no authority to order the elected government to pass laws
on any matter whatever.
6. Ignore it
Jake ,   Dallas   (12.15.17)
The government should ignore the ruling. DO NOT return the bodies or pass a law. What will the court do? Demand it? Ignore it again, what will they do? Demand the government dissolve ? Bibi would call for new elections based solely on the ruling and win again. Then ignore the ruling. A court only has moral authority if it acts in accord with the norms of the society in which it lives. THIs court has over stepped its bounds and should be made powerless.
7. Bury all "Palestinian" terrorists on pig farms
Chaim ,   Israel   (12.15.17)
The High Court ruling is obscene, and it must be made totally subservient to the elected Knesset. However, the problem is that Israel empowers "Palestinian" terrorists in many ways. Merely keeping them alive GUARANTEES more innocent Israelis will be maimed and murdered. Israel should do the following:

1. Execute ALL "Palestinian" terrorists within 72 hours of capture. Keep them alive just long enough for thorough interrogation.

2. Execute "Palestinian" terrorists with an all female firing squad. They believe they can't get to heaven if killed by a woman.

3. Bury "Palestinian" terrorists on pig farms for obvious reasons.
8. mr
ik ,   USA   (12.15.17)
I understand the court ruling of a civilized, law abiding country. But, what about the rules of War? There must be some precedent.
9. HJC upholding justice
The Archives   (12.16.17)
If HJC is so concern about balancing justice, why doesn't HJC also put into law that that it is also illegal for the palestine to withold israelites' bodies in their territory? The ruling to return terrorist bodies must be illegal and void of any justice.
10. is that what the hcj said?
shloime ,   toronto   (12.16.17)
it sounds more like they said that, since there is no law covering the use of dead terrorists' bodies as bargaining chips, the government needs to enact one. because the court cannot rule on laws that haven't been written.
11. Terrorist has no dignity or any right.
The Archives   (12.16.17)
If terrorist do not respect the the dignity of law abiding Israelites, what does the courts does not need to respect terrorist that has no rights to be returned.
