The Israeli Prison Service has begun preparations to introduce the death penalty for Palestinian prisoners, Israeli media reported on Sunday.

According to Israel's Channel 13, preparations include the creation of a facility dubbed "Israel's Green Mile", where executions will take place

The report added that executions will be carried out by hanging, with three guards pressing the trigger simultaneously.

Specialist teams, composed entirely of volunteers, will be assigned to the task.

Hanging.

At least initially, eventually they will run into efficiency issues and they will need to upgrade their methods. if you have 100 people you want to kill, hanging is fine, but what about 1000? 10,000? 100,000? hanging is just too slow.

Slow and inefficient as you said; so it must be for show
