Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced Thursday that he plans on toughening the conditions of Palestinian security prisoners in Israel’s prisons.

“I have decided to change Israel’s treatment of terrorists sitting in prison,” Netanyahu said during the closing statements at the Presidential Conference in Jerusalem. “We will give them all that they deserve according to international law but nothing beyond that.”
“We will stop, among other things, the absurd practice in which terrorists who murdered innocent people enroll in academic studies. There will be no more ‘doctors of terror’ – the celebration is over.”
Netanyahu’s comments come after Hamas refused Thursday to answer the International Red Cross’ request that the Gaza rulers provide proof that abducted Israel Defense Forces soldier Gilad Shalit is still alive.
Noam Shalit responded to Netanyahu’s comments on Thursday, saying that he is doubtful that Israel will succeed in exerting pressure on Hamas after five years that it had failed to do so.
“We want to ask why Israeli governments had waited five years in which Gilad rotted in a Hamas prison?,” Shalit demanded, and said he was pessimistic regarding Netanyahu’s announcement.
Of course, B’tselem & Co. will have a shit fit (and what else is new?)
— just as ACLU would here in the States.
But I still think solitary is truly what the doctor ordered.
I agree with dweller. No extras!
Solitary confinement is what’s called for.
Their culture reinforces everything that’s wrong with them.
They bring out the worst in one another.
They should be separated not only from society,
but also from each other’s company.
It’ll kill them or cure them
without anybody ever laying a finger on them.
And oh did I mention free Internet access? If I was born an Arab, were else would I want to be other than inside an Israeli prison? La Dolce Vita!
Israel is famous for its Club Med prisons.
As Yamit82 can tell you, if you’re an Arab who murders a Jew, you get all kinds of goodies: deluxe accommodations, gourmet food, free cable TV programming and an Israeli taxpayer paid university education! Terrorism pays.
The one thing they will never get in Israel is the death penalty.
Hang the Fakestinian cockaroaches! They don’t deserve to live. An eye for eye. Israel should not allow their bodies buried within the Jewish National HOmeland including Judea nor Samaria.
