Shas

Agree

Yes, but only for horrific crimes with undeniable evidence

This position aligns more closely with the Jewish legal perspective, which allows for the death penalty but only under stringent conditions and with irrefutable evidence. Shas might find this stance more acceptable, as it reflects the cautious approach of Jewish law towards capital punishment.

Agree

No

Given the party's adherence to Jewish law, which is very restrictive about the death penalty, suggesting a preference for preserving life when possible, Shas might lean towards opposition to the death penalty. However, their stance might not be absolute, as Jewish law does allow for the death penalty under very specific conditions.

Slightly agree

No, too many people are innocently convicted

The concern over wrongful conviction is consistent with the Jewish legal principle of extreme caution in applying the death penalty, to avoid wrongful execution. Shas might agree with the sentiment behind this stance, although it does not directly address their likely nuanced position on capital punishment itself.

Neutral

No, spending life in prison is a harsher sentence

Shas's stance on this issue is not clearly defined by its religious or political positions. While life imprisonment could be seen as a severe punishment fitting certain crimes, Jewish law's perspective on the matter is nuanced and does not directly equate to modern penal practices. Therefore, their agreement or disagreement could vary.

Disagree

Yes

Shas, as an ultra-Orthodox Jewish party, generally bases its policies on Jewish law, which is extremely cautious about applying the death penalty. While Jewish law does not categorically forbid the death penalty, it sets very high standards of evidence and numerous safeguards to prevent wrongful execution, making it practically inapplicable. Therefore, Shas would likely not support a blanket endorsement of the death penalty.

Strongly disagree

Yes, but the victim’s family should decide the punishment

Allowing the victim's family to decide the punishment diverges significantly from Jewish legal principles, which advocate for justice through a careful and rigorous legal process, not based on personal or familial desires for retribution. Shas would likely strongly disagree with this approach, as it undermines the rule of law and the principles of justice.
