'Regulation Law must be canceled'
Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit says Regulation Law is unconstitutional, must be canceled.
But Whose Constitution is He Referring to?
the Law of Hammurabi?
Israel does not have a formal constitution.
The "Regulation Law" was passed in February and provides financial compensation or alternate plots of land to Arabs who have a legal claim to land inadvertently built on by Jews.
Under the Regulation Law, homes built on such properties will be allowed to remain, and owners with proven claims to the land will be given a choice of receiving an alternate plot of land or monetary compensation for 125% of their land's value. ArutzSheva
UPDATE : MK Moalem: AG's position on Regulation Law 'very troubling’ – Jewish Home MK blasts AG's opposition to Regulation Law. 'He should allow government to appoint another AG, or keep quiet. ArutzSheva
Further from the Times of Israel:
AG: Outpost law discriminates against Palestinians, should be repealed. Mandelblit added that “the law will also cause severe discrimination against the Palestinian population in the region.”
But while Mandelblit was vocal in his opposition to the outpost legalization law, the attorney general provided a legal opinion in a separate case last week that rights groups argue may have set an identical precedent to the one that the February legislation had aimed to establish.
The legal opinion saw Mandelblit approve the expropriation of private Palestinian land for the building of an access road to an illegal West Bank outpost, Haresha.
To green-light the land confiscation, the attorney general used a recent legal opinion given by Supreme Court Justice Salim Joubran who ruled separately that abandoned private Palestinian land could be seized for the grounds as long as the original owners are compensated. TimesofIsrael
Further from Regavim:
Game Changing “Kaminitz Law” will help in battle against illegal building
Here is an op-ed in The Jerusalem Post / JPost.com by Regavim’s Josh Hasten on a new game changing law – known as the “Kaminitz Law,” which will allow local authorities to crack down on illegal building in Israel. This is especially relevant in northern Israel where according to Regavim’s research, in 95% of the Arab towns and villages in that area, the Arabs resort to illegal building claiming the State doesn’t offer them permits, but as the article indicates, that is not the reality.

Citizens Speak Out:
"Mandelblit is supposed to advise the government, not make judgments that can only be done by the Supreme Court. He is a lawyer, not a judge, and his responsibility is to advise and to present the government's case before the court. He does not get to make up his mind what is constitutional and what is not."
"With friends like Mandelblit who needs enemies? No matter what the law states it is immoral, unethical and sinful to expel law abiding citizens and destroy their homes before first providing them with an equal new home to move to. The Arabs treat their terrorists better than Israel treats law abiding Jews."
