No I do not and I'm very proud of my country's record regarding this issue (1 execution in 60 years, and he was a Nazi war criminal).
I am conservative but it is my religious and moral views that don't allow me to support such a punishment and the crime is not relevant since the question is not whether he deserves to be beheaded (many people do) but whether we are allowed and capable of making the decision to take someone's life.
I believe the answer is-no, plus I don't believe it deters future offenders.

Well, viewing the statistics it's really not a brave call (80% of us are), but you're right.
God willing in a couple of weeks you'll have someone to report on new elections in Israel...
