accused by "classified" information, without any evidence....

Kahanist Israeli lawmaker (Otzma Yehudit, Jewish Force) and chairman of the National Security Committee Zvika Fogel pushed through the Knesset in September a law authorizing the police to conduct widespread surveillance using new technologies without judicial oversight.

In November, he pushed through the first reading of a law authorizing a police commander and other officials to request permission from the president of a district court or his deputy to access a personal computer or cell phone.

He has just passed a third law empowering the police, on the instructions of the prosecutor, to take measures restricting freedom, which the accused must comply with or risk four years in prison. This could include administrative detention, i.e. without trial, on the sole basis of classified information, without the police having to provide any evidence.

Irish red lines.....

 

Israel will close its Dublin embassy due to the "extreme anti-Israel policies of the Irish government", Foreign Minister Gideon Saar said on Sunday. The decision refers to Ireland's recognition of a Palestinian state and support for legal action against Israel in the International Court of Justice (ICJ), which accuses Israel of genocide.

 

Israel's foreign ministry announced on Sunday that it was closing its embassy in Ireland, citing the Dublin government's "extreme anti-Israeli policies", further straining tense relations between the two nations.

Diplomatic ties between Ireland and Israel have deteriorated after a series of moves that included Ireland recognising a Palestinian state and backing an International Court of Justice case accusing Israel of "genocide" in the Gaza Strip.

Ireland has also been among the most outspoken critics of Israel's response to the October 7, 2023 attacks by Hamas that sparked the war in Gaza.

"The decision to close Israel's embassy in Dublin was made in light of the extreme anti-Israel policies of the Irish government," the foreign ministry said in a statement.

"The actions and antisemitic rhetoric used by Ireland against Israel are rooted in the delegitimisation and demonisation of the Jewish state, along with double standards," Foreign Minister Gideon Saar said in a statement.

"Ireland has crossed every red line in its relations with Israel."

In November, Ireland's Prime Minister Simon Harris said the country's authorities would detain his Israeli counterpart Binyamin Netanyahu if he travelled to Ireland after the International Criminal Court issued an arrest warrant for him.

The ICC issued warrants for Netanyahu and his former defence minister Yoav Gallant "for crimes against humanity and war crimes" committed between October 8, 2023, and May 20 this year in the Gaza Strip.
