IMEMC News | 31.12.2013 15:36 | Flotilla to Gaza | Anti-militarism | Palestine | Terror War

Many newspapers (including the Guardian, Independent, and Irish Times) have whitewashed the violent crimes of the terrorists being released and all but ignored the victims. So, in addition to details about the perpetrators and their crimes, we’ve also included some information on the Israeli (and Palestinian) victims.

On December 28th the Israeli Prison Service published the list of prisoners scheduled for release later this week, representing the third round of four scheduled releases agreed upon by Israel’s prime minister as a ‘goodwill gesture’ to get the Palestinians to resume peace talks.

Below is a translation of the list of the latest 26 prisoners scheduled for release with additional information:
