Interior minister vows to prevent future cases like Alqasem’s

Interior Minister Aryeh Deri calls the Supreme Court’s decision to let US student Lara Alqasem into Israel a “disgrace,” adding that he will investigate “how to prevent such an event from happening again.”

“Where is our national respect?” Deri tweets. “Would she also dare to act against the country and demand to stay and study in it?”
