It's a Disgrace!

Meir Ettinger, held in administrative detention for more than seven months 

Meir Ettinger, a "rightwing" activist and grandson of the late Rabbi Meir Kahane, imprisoned for more than seven months for unspecified reasons, submitted an appeal last Thursday, asking the court to order the prison service to let him leave today (Monday 4/4), in order to participate in his son's brit milah.

Ettinger was never a suspect in the deadly Duma arson, but has been held without charge under administrative detention for unspecified reasons for more than seven months.

Yesterday the Be'er Sheva district court judge rejected the petition to release him from his administrative detention for just several hours to attend the brit.

As the article states, "Dangerous criminal prisoners go out on vacations and Meir Ettinger is behind lock and key without an indictment submitted against him, only for his ideological positions and not for a specific danger he poses, and therefore there is no reason to prevent his release to the brit milah."

In today's Times of Israel, it was reported that the brit was held in a Jerusalem synagogue, without Ettinger being present as he was called a security threat to the public.
Jewish extremist remains in jail as son is circumcised (note: the headline is TOI's wording.)

This is a sad day for Israel and the Israeli judicial system, when an individual held in detention without being charged, is withheld the right and sacred duty to attend his son's brit. Murderers and other dangerous criminals go on vacation, soldiers are prohibited from shooting at terrorists...what is going on here? This has the smell of political correctness and looks like kowtowing to the false g-d of liberalism.
