Caroline Glick writes in the Jerusalem Post that Hamas has announced a new penal code that includes amputation and crucifixion as punishment. I have tried to verify this and place the story in context, but most sources lead back to Glick’s original piece. MEMRI has nothing on it.

Some entries have Hamas denying it and others claim they are lying in their denial. The Jerusalem report noted that the law had passed two readings and was awaiting a third. See the Jerusalem Post article here . Note at the end of the article that “The Jerusalem Post could not verify the veracity of the Al Hayat report.”
