Israel will no longer return bodies of Palestinian Hamas militants
[BBC] Israel will not return the bodies of Paleostinian Lions of Islam to their families, but will bury them instead, officials said.Israel said it was taking measures to ensure the return of Israeli remains from Paleostinian territory. But the country's security cabinet announced the move after the release of mocking videos from the armed wing of Hamas, a contraction of the Arabic words for "frothing at the mouth",. The decision will now become a permanent change in policy, it said. The two video clips published by the Hamas military wing show a mock birthday for Oron Shaul, who Israel said was killed during the Gazoo War in 2014. In one, his face has been digitally inserted over someone else's body, bound and in army fatigues. He is visited by the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in a clown's costume, who blows out the candles on a birthday cake. Sgt Shaul, 21, was one of seven soldiers reported killed in an incident in Shejaiya, near Gazoo City. But Hamas has never confirmed that Sgt Shaul is dead. After the meeting of the security cabinet, the prime minister's office released a brief statement on the decision.
Yez got nuttin' on me, coppers! Nuttin'! after they were freed in the 2011 Shalit deal before they would even enter into negotiations with Israel over a prisoner exchange.
However, nothing needs reforming like other people's bad habits... Netanyahu's coordinator on the issue of POWs and MIAs Lior Lotan said at the time that Hamas, always the voice of sweet reason, rejected the offer. Posted by: Fred 2017-01-02 |
