Ayelet Shaked 
I still would though.

Justice Minister Ayelet Shaked
That's a new low.
That's a new low.
Check out the the expertise here on Israeli politics. Who would be your natural candidate for the job then?
Someone who wouldn't call for the genocide of Palestinians would probably be a good start.
Well if vermins like Ayelet Shaked are chosen as Justice Minister in Israel, I guess you yourself wouldn't look out of place as a natural candidate.
Ladies and gentlemen the Justice Minister of Israel.
Genocide, vermin, green smilies... How disappointing.
So, do you actually have any reasons why you think she'd be a good justice minister? Or are you just trolling?
Ah, the old I'm misrepresented....
Palestine denounces pro-settlement Netanyahu coalition
Chief negotiator says the new government will seek to expand settlements as Tel Aviv approves 900 settlement homes.

The Palestinians have denounced Israel’s newly-formed government, with chief negotiator Saeb Erekat saying it was clear that it would not be working for peace and would be seeking to expand settlements.
"The face of a new form of racist, discriminatory Israel has been revealed," Erekat said in a statement sent to Al Jazeera.
He accused Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of "leading the charge to bury the two state solution and impose a perpetual Apartheid regime."
Erekat's statement comes as a watchdog group reported that Israel has approved construction of 900 settler homes in annexed East Jerusalem.
Peace Now spokeswoman Hagit Ofran told AFP news agency that the new homes will be built in the East Jerusalem settlement neighbourhood of Ramat Shlomo, following a decision late on Wednesday by the city's district planning committee, just as Netanyahu was finalising his coalition government.
"They've approved the request, and now they're allowed to build," Ofran said.
Reacting to the latest report, Stephane Dujarric, spokesman for United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-moon, said: "The Secretary General is deeply concerned by recent announcements by Israeli authorities of plans for 900 settlement units in East Jerusalem which are illegal under international law."
The interior ministry, under whose auspices the district planning committee functions, said however that "no new units were approved".
"The discussion that took place last night was about a technicality for a plan that had already been approved years ago," a spokeswoman said.
In March 2010, the interior ministry announced a plan to build 1,600 settler homes in Ramat Shlomo, an ultra-Orthodox Jewish neighbourhood in mainly Arab east Jerusalem.
Netanyahu's new administration is giving a senior role to the far-right Jewish Home that firmly opposes a Palestinian state.
Robbie Sabel, an expert at Jerusalem's Hebrew University, said the new government would not be popular with the international community but noted that Netanyahu would be careful to keep foreign policy matters out of Bennett's hands.
"Intentionally, Netanyahu is keeping the foreign ministry in his own hands for the meantime which means there will be no change in Israel's foreign policy," he told AFP.
'Anti-peace'
Following six weeks of intensive negotiations, the Israeli premier finally managed to forge a government late on Wednesday, just an hour before a legal deadline.
Had he failed, he would have forfeited his position as premier.
The composition of Netanyahu's rightwing, religious coalition marks a new shift to the right by giving increased prominence to Naftali Bennett's nationalist-religious Jewish Home party, which strongly backs settlement activity.
In an interview with Al Jazeera, senior Palestinian official Hanan Ashrawi said Netanyahu's government is "anti-peace" and predicted that it would be "short-lived."
In a separate interview with AFP, Ashrawi also denounced Netanyahu's coalition partner Jewish Home saying that it "represents the most extreme and racist elements within Israeli society" and warned that the new government could cause "irreparable damage" and "wreak havoc in the region".
Under the terms of the agreement, Bennett and his party will take several key portfolios including justice and education, as well as control of the World Zionist Organisation's settlement division, which transfers money to settlements.
The party will have two seats in the security cabinet and the position of deputy defence minister, with responsibility for the Civil Administration that runs all civilian affairs in most of the occupied West Bank.

Israel treats 4-year-old Gaza patient
Yara had her leg amputated in Gaza after she was hit by a truck in an accident, after her situation worsened, Hamas finally agreed to her parents request to let her get medical aid in Israel.
Yara from Gaza was transferred to Israel for medical treatment after she was injured in a car accident in the strip. Three months later she has managed to surprise hospital staff at the Barzilai Medical Center in Ashkelon by starting to walk just a few days after she was given a prosthetic leg. Now released from the hospital, Yara can walk and even learned Hebrew during her time in the Israeli hospital. Back in Gaza, Yara was reunited with her parents for the first time since she left to get treatment in Israel.

Here's a positive for the non-haters. Perhaps all is not lost yet...
Ah those israeli humanists
What about the slaughtering of thousands of palestian "snakes" by IDF ?

Yeah, I don't think that post was directed at you. He said for the non haters. With attitudes like yours, there really is no hope.
Quite correct.
The irony just cracks me up. You really have lost your mind.Bending over to the Israeli terrorists is not a solution either, I'll leave that to you brittons and americans. No shame in hating the only apartheid country left in the world, led by one the most hateful far right racist and colonialist party in the world, slaughtering thousands of innocent people since 1948 on the basis of historical events that have nothing to do with them.
Did you even read the article posted?
That child will live in a prison most his life, will probably be in a war zone every 2 years, will never have the opportunities that most children in the western world will have to learn, to travel, to have a job and raise a family in peace, and it will be Israels fault
So maybe they should have left her to die then?
Like I said, with attitudes like yours, and others, there really is no hope.
I have no problem with them treating her, the propaganda is disgusting
Is correct, yet it seems to go over some peoples heads.
You've lost me mate.
I guess that's the difference between us, I try to look for the good, you're only interested in looking at the bad, even when there isn't any.
The little girl got treatment, that's the important thing.
I can't even imagine what reaction there would be if she'd been told to feck off with no treatment.
How many of the 1.2 billion Muslims enjoy opportunities like most children in the West? Israel's fault of course.
The only way Muslims can enjoy opportunities like others in the West is immigration.
It's a great thing that they've helped this girl, but this comes after a summer in which they killed 550+ kids. Surely, you can see why most of us have reservations, here. Or why, some would see this as a hollow, token gesture.
The majority won't be restricted to a life within the same 25 miles
Official PA daily acknowledges
Israeli hospital's medical care
for Palestinian children and training of doctors
by Itamar Marcus and Nan Jacques Zilberdik
The official PA daily reported on a visit by the PA Minister of Health, Hani Abdeen, to Israel's Hadassah Hospital in Jerusalem. The daily noted that 30% of the child patients in Hadassah are Palestinians and that the Israeli hospital is training "60 Palestinian medical interns and specialist physicians who will be returning to the [Palestinian] Authority areas to carry out their work." The hospital has a special program to train Palestinian doctors to treat cancer among children, reported the PA daily.
The following is the report:
"[PA] Minister of Health, Hani Abdeen visited the [Israeli] Hadassah Hospital yesterday [May 5, 2013]. This is the first visit by a Palestinian minister to one of the most important Israeli hospitals, according to the hospital's announcement.
Minister Abdeen who was accompanied by a delegation that included senior officials of the ministry and of the PA, met with the Director of Ein Karem Hadassah Hospital, Yuval Weiss. He [the minister] visited Palestinian patients being treated in the hospital, and he distributed gifts. [Hospital director] Weiss said: 'We relate to patients without regard to nationality and religion. We treat Muslims, Christians, Jews, and other nationalities without bias, and 30% of the patients who are children are Palestinians.'
He went on to say: 'We've begun cooperating with the Palestinians. We now train teams of physicians from the hospital in Beit Jala in the southern West Bank, to treat cancer among children. We have about 60 Palestinian medical interns and specialist physicians who will be returning to the [Palestinian] Authority areas to carry out their work.'"

This article documenting Israel's medical care for Palestinian children is a change from common PA accusations that Israel intentionally tries to hurt Palestinians, for example by spreading drugs intentionally among Palestinian youth.

Why would their Egyptian brothers trap them there?
Just propaganda mate.
The Egyptian military is largely funded by money from the US provided as part of the Israel - Egypt peace deal
It is, look at we train 60 medics, ignore the thousands we kill
Egypt an American stooge ? I've heard it all now.
