Israel just made it legal to hang Palestinians who have a 99.74% conviction rate in their courts For Israelis it's a 1.9% conviction rate for crimes against Palestinians but the death penalty is still illegal Israel can now kill any Palestinian they accuse
Israel is about to start executing Palestinians but not Israelis. Israel has a 99.74% conviction rate for Palestinians, but only a 1.9% conviction rate for Israelis who commit crimes against Palestinians. This means ANY Palestinian who is accused will be executed, guilty or not

Video interviews with teachers
The latest research from the University of Oxford is a 10-year follow up to the first piece of research looking into the educational achievement of EAL pupils in England.

In this video, teachers tell about the implications of the research for their work.
