The government is in the midst of enacting harsh sentences against terrorists as well as against inciters, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu warned Sunday.
"We're in the midst of a wave of terror whose source is in the false and systemic incitement over the Temple Mount - incitement from Hamas, the Palestinian Authority (PA), and the Islamic Movement in Israel," he stated, in his opening remarks to his weekly Cabinet meeting.
"At the end of the week I commanded to draft 16 Border Police reserve units in order to restore security and order," he continued.
Netanyahu added, as well, that the government is due to pass Sunday a one-year minimum sentence for rock and firebomb throwers, as well as fines levied against both minors convicted of these crimes and their parents.
