BREAKING: #Israeli PM @netanyahu says #Jerusalem attacker was an ISIS supporter

(ISIS support needs to be fact checked...
if true... it's FIRST ISIS lethal attack on Israel & possible 'chickens coming 'home' to roost w/ LARGER hegemon implications erupting.
It's getting 'real' for Erdogan/Turkey too... 'proxiis' are now turning radioactive against 'handlers'. Israel, Jordan and Turkey all being stung by the scorpion ... Next Saudi Arabia?)

COLLECTIVE PUNISHMENT




Israeli court extends the remand of slain attacker's family members

JERUSALEM (Ma'an) -- Israel’s magistrate court in Jerusalem on Monday
extended the remand of three family members of Fadi al-Qunbar, 28 --
who was killed on Saturday after droving a truck into a group of uniformed Israeli soldiers,
killing four and injuring at least 13 others --
from the Jabal al-Mukabbir neighborhood of occupied East Jerusalem.

The al-Qunbar family told Ma’an that the judge decided to release Fadi's sister Shadia,
but decided to extend the detentions of his brothers Munther and Muhammad,
as well as his cousin Muhammad Omran al-Qunbar until Sunday Jan 15.

The judge also ordered Shadia to house arrest for two days.

The family added that Israeli intelligence on Monday
questioned Fadi's parents and sisters before releasing them,
as well as Fadi’s wife Tahani.

Israeli forces had detained at least five of Fadi’s relatives
during raids in Jabal al-Mukabbir on Sunday,
including his wife Tahani,
his parents Ahmad and Minwa,
and his two brothers Muhammad and Munther.

Throughout their detentions, Fadi’s relatives have maintained
they had no advanced knowledge of plans for the attack.

Israeli leaders on Monday continued to demand that extreme punitive actions
be taken against the al-Qunbar family -- with one minister advocating
that al-Qunbar’s relatives be exiled to Syria
and to deny his relatives national insurance benefits.

Former Israeli army general and current Israeli Minister of Housing and Construction Yoav Galant
told Ynet that "we need to kill him, demolish his home, and expel his family. And his family should be expelled not to Gaza, but to Syria."

Member of Israel’s parliament and Deputy Minister of Regional Cooperation Ayoub Kara
had earlier called to immediately expel the family to the besieged Gaza Strip,
a punitive measure which has been used by Israel against Palestinians
from occupied East Jerusalem and the West Bank.

Kara demanded that the family members of “terrorists”
be expelled to Gaza within 48 hours,
saying that demolishing the al-Qunbar family home,
which the Israel's security cabinet ordered to be carried out as soon as possible,
was not a sufficient response.

The mounting calls came as Israel
has come under harsh condemnation over the past several years
for its response to attacks committed by Palestinians on Israelis,
which rights groups have said amounted to “collective punishment”
and represents a clear violation of international law.

COLLECTIVE PUNISHMENT

Would it be racist if US started demolishing family homes of only jewish violent killers?


Would it be racist if US started demolishing family homes of only jewish killers/mass defrauders/violent criminals etc to deter such crimes (and did not apply same familial punishment to non-jewish criminals involved in similar crimes)?

For example, for crimes like these where criminals cannot be brought to justice in the US:

The American-Israeli killer who nearly caused a diplomatic crisis
By Haaretz | Feb. 23, 2014 | 9:10 PM
His case caused a diplomatic crisis between Israel and the U.S. – and subsequently prompted a change in Israel's extradition law – after he evaded arrest in the U.S. and made his way to Israel, where he was eligible for automatic citizenship as the son of an Israeli national.
Israel's refusal to extradite him, which was supported by the Israeli Supreme Court on the basis of a 1978 law banning the extradition of Israeli citizens, led to threats from Congress to withhold aid to Israel and a period of frosty relations with then-Secretary of State Madeleine Albright.
According to police, Needle allegedly incapacitated Tello with a stun gun and then choked and stabbed him, before finally beating Tello to death with a sawed-off shotgun. The two murderers then stored the body of Tello in Sheinbein's garage, where they mutilated the body by dismembering the victim's limbs and burning the body so that Tello could not be identified as the victim.

Charged with fraud, two LA Jews abscond to Israel

Feb 4, 2014 - NEW YORK — Two Los Angeles Jews charged with participating in a $33 million bank fraud have fled to Israel.


Above question is for all zionists who support below Israeli practice of collective punishment:

But this kind of collective punishment seems like a one way street only applied when suspects are non-jewish:

Dad of Slain Palestinian Teen: Demolish Murder Suspects' Homes
EAST JERUSALEM - The father of a Palestinian teen who was burned to death by suspected Jewish extremists said justice would only be done if Israel demolished the homes those responsible for the killing. “Justice is when they destroy their houses just like they destroyed the houses of the suspects in Hebron,” Hussein Abu Khdeir said on Monday
