Yesh Din's analysis of MoJ report on Israel’s Investigation and Prosecution of Ideologically Motivated Offences Against Palestinians in the West Bank

New Israeli Ministry of Justice report describes Israeli law enforcement efforts as effective and adequate for deterring and punishing ideologically motivated offenses committed by Israeli civilians against Palestinians in the West Bank; yet according to Yesh Din’s data collected since 2005, a police complaint filed by a Palestinian in the West Bank has a mere 1.9% chance of being effectively investigated, and a suspect identified, prosecuted and convicted.
