1. Schnorrering Again

There are over 5000 Palestinian prisoners in Israeli jails. Israel does not consider them as prisoners of war who would then be subject to the Geneva conventions, but classifies them as 'security detainees'. The Minister of Public Security is responsible for them. Many of them are serving life-terms and others have never been tried in any court of law. The bill proposing that the PA pay for their incarceration defies logic.

4. Execute ALL "Palestinian" terrorists. Help the rest leave
Chaim ,   Israel   (10.23.18)
It is utter lunacy for Israel to provide any support or treatment for our mortal "Palestinian" foes. We should promptly execute ALL "Palestinian" terrorists. Help the rest of them leave our land forever.
5. Ship them to PA hospitals. Keep them out of Jewish hospitals
David ,   Hartford USA   (10.23.18)
What an insult to treat the killers in the same hospital as the victims! When the Israeli doctors announce, "We're healers and make no differentiation between Arab and Jew," they sound like total idiots.

"Hello. I'm Dr. Shmuckly, an ER physician. Today I worked on a PA terrorist who was injured when he bombed a flower shop in the city. I saved his arm that was terribly damaged when the bomb blew up while he was still holding it. New micro-surgery techniques developed here allowed me to not only save his arm, but to make it stronger. We don't care who the patient is. We treat everyone like family."

"Dr. Shmuckly, we just learned that one of the fatalities in the flower shop attack was your wife. Do you still feel the same way about treating terrorists?"

"What? What did you say? Well, ah, I see. Um, Excuse me, please. I have to go check on the dressings on the wounded patient."

(terrible screams coming from terrorist's room.)
(Dr. Shmuckly returns.)

"I've just come from inspecting the patient's wounds and regret to say that they became infected and the only way to try to save the patient was to do an emergency traumatic amputation. Alas, it wasn't successful. But to answer your question, yes, we will treat everyone, even though we know we won't be able to save them all......"

- No terrorists in Israeli hospitals. Let them wait on the ground until a PA supported hospital can get to them. Unless the police think they can get some useful information from him/her, let the terrorist lay on the ground until Arab help arrives. Let Allah decide if the person shall live.

Seriously, if a Gestapo agent was injured, would you life a finger to help him?
6. simple solution
zionist forever   (10.24.18)
Do not let any terrorists injured in Israel be permitted to receive medical care in Israel, call Abbas and get him to come get some of his things take away the injured terrorist.
Its also not to difficult to take any medical care financing from PA tax money collected by Israel, not even controversial just say a terrorist was in cured received medical treatment so we took the money for their bill.
7. International law is not a thing.

"which is required under international law" An oxymoron if I ever heard of one. The international community can certainly exert pressure or make treaties, but only a state can make laws.
