WHERE YOUR TAXES GO. Western Alliance sponsored Israel is planning to use crocodiles to guard Palestinian inmates, according to media. The reptiles have been reclassified as ‘tended’ animals, removing a key legal obstacle to their use in prisons.
Israel has reportedly reclassified Nile crocodiles as tended animals, potentially clearing the way for their use as part of prison security.
The diabolical proposal to surround prisons with crocodile-filled moats was reportedly floated late last year by far-right National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir. He argued the reptiles would strengthen security and deter escape attempts.
The plan was initially deemed legally unfeasible by the Israel Nature and Parks Authority because Nile crocodiles were classified as wild animals that could only be kept in zoos and wildlife sanctuaries.
That legal obstacle was reportedly removed this week when Environmental Protection Minister Idit Silman redesignated the Nile crocodile as a ’tended wild animal,’ Israeli media reported on Friday.
The new classification allows the reptiles to be kept in a wider range of facilities, including prisons.
The new designation reportedly comes despite warnings from the ministry’s legal adviser, who told Silman she had no authority to unilaterally decide on the status of the crocodiles and lay the groundwork for their deployment into prisons.
A few weeks ago, Ben-Gvir and Silman reportedly held a meeting with the legal adviser and Nature and Parks Authority chief Raya Soraki, pressing them into accepting the plan.
According to Israeli media reports, Ben-Gvir wants to first introduce the reptiles to Ketziot Prison, a penitentiary in southern Israel that holds Palestinian prisoners.
After he first floated the proposal, the Israel Prison Service (IPS) reviewed it and sent officers to the Hamat Gader crocodile farm early in January to familiarize themselves with the reptiles.
The IPS reportedly received the minister’s proposal favorably, considering settling for smaller specimens that would cost about $8,000 per head rather than older reptiles costing around $20,000.
‘’This is a relatively small sum compared with the security investment a prison requires, and the results would be even better,’ an IPS source told the Maariv newspaper at the time.’
He added that the ’also dangerous’ small reptiles would eventually grow inside the prison compound. Let readers know what you think

Hopefully the crocodile eats me last in the open air prison of mediocrity known as muh democracy.
Ezra Pound nailed it when he said democracy means someplace that is run by Jews and hope isn’t a strategy.

This alone shows what a nasty cast of mind these so called leaders of ?God’s? Chosen People are/were towards others. Now they’re employing members of the animal kingdom to do the dirty work for them, from methods utilized from ancient empires, which they themselves allegedly decried as unjust. cruel and inhumane when they were being allegedly persecuted under these same regimes, against people who are actually supposed to be their “Semitic” brethren.The hypocrisy is beyond belief!! But I guess if you have a National Security Monster such as Ben-Gvir,you commit reptilian brained atrocities while actually using reptiles. The irony should not be missed. Where they snickering when the IPDisservice ( reverse orwellianism please forgive this.) tacked on “?also dangerous?”
