Jerusalem suspended the deportation of a Palestinian man whose son is an Israeli soldier. The High Court of Justice issued the stay Sunday on proceedings against Adel Hussein, a native of Tulkarm living illegally in Israel. When Hussein was married to Stella Peretz, a Jewish Israeli, the couple had a son, Mohammed. Mohammed Hussein is now a soldier in the Israeli army’s Bedouin battalion.
