31. So what do you think was the purpose of Shaked's visit to the mother of a terrorist?

Your claim that Shaked is hard on Jewish terrorism seems illogical when the goal of her visit was to show support for a Jewish terrorist. I'm not really sure how or when Shaked called for death penalty for Jewish terrorists, but her actions show that she supports Jewish terrorists.

OTOH, I think that the Balad MKs did the right thing to visit the families of dead terrorists, simply because I believe in civil rights and stuff. Democratic states don't do collective punishment, and that should include Israel. The bodies of dead terrorists are not a security risk, and withholding their release to prevent burial is a form of collective punishment.
