When is enough, enough?
Daniel Katz was born on January 3, 1969. In 1983, at age 14, he was kidnapped, brutally raped and murdered, his badly beaten body found days later in a cave in Carmel. In 1991, five palestinian men confessed to the crime, and were sentenced to life imprisonment for abducting, sexually assaulting and murdering Katz. According to the original indictment against the five, they met a few days before the murder and decided to kidnap and kill a Jewish child.
Today, Shimon Peres released Danny's confessed killers, he set them free to kill again. Why would Peres do such a terrible thing? Well, there are those who believe he did it in return for the arab votes that gave him the Presidency, and it could be true. What other explanation is possible?
Fifty-five terrorists released this morning, and another thirty will be released later today. As Shimon Peres rewards palestinian terror with the release of convicted terrorists who have killed and who will now kill again, palestinians will celebrate their victory, while rockets continue to rain down on Israeli civilians, molotov cocktails are thrown, and people are shot at in the streets and in their homes. In schools and shopping malls and on buses, innocent people are blown to bits.
The ultimate irony, all of the terrorists released today are Fatah terrorists, all of whom are part of the terrorist regime of Mahmoud Abbas, the so-called moderate terrorist and Israel's "partner in peace." Its a funny thing about terrorists, whether you call them extremist or moderate, no matter which one kills you, you are still dead. Danny Katz was killed by Fatah's moderates, and he is still dead.
When you consider what we know the aftermath will be, why would and why should Israel release more terrorists to bolster the terrorist forces of Mahmoud Abbas? The very idea is ludicrous and suicidal.
There are 11,000 murderous, psychotic, cold-blooded palestinian terrorists waiting in Israeli prisons for their release into the wild, waiting for the day they can continue the systematic murder of innocent Israeli citizens. Chrad al Yahood, they see the light at the end of the tunnel, their day is coming. One by one, bit by bit, Israel's government will release those terrorists, as they have today, and as they have in the past, for the stupid, ineffective and meaningless negotiations with terrorists who want only to kill.
And meanwhile, Gilad Shalit, Eldad Regev and Ehud Goldwasser remain in terrorist hands, no one knows if they are dead or alive, although according to reports one of them is in fact, dead:
One of the two kidnapped IDF soldiers in Lebanon are dead, according to estimates by German security sources, who were quoted in the Lebanese newspaper, An-Nahar, Saturday.
“Security forces understood that one of the kidnapped soldiers is still alive, however, the other is dead,” An-Nahar reported.
There is nothing like a little psychological warfare, "they're dead" or "no, they're alive" or "they are desperate need of medical attention" as they said last June, when we suffered through reports that Gilad Shalit was in dire need of medical attention. There was no international outcry or outrage, no pressure put on Hamas to give him the medical attention he needs, oh no. The world was too busy worrying about the kidnapped BBC reporter who of course was released in perfect health, as he was obviously not Jewish.
Two years ago, we gave up the Gush as a show of good faith. And in return, we got thousands of rockets raining down on Israeli civilians, women, children, schools.
Last year, Israel should have fought until these men were released or until every single square inch of Lebanon and Gaza was buried under rubble. Hezbollah, Hamas, and Fatah should have been destroyed, completely destroyed.
Instead, Israel gave up and accomplished nothing, and now, Israel has again released palestinian terrorists from its prisons in exchange for nothing, calling it a show of good faith to the evil bastards who hold these men captive. Originally, the plan was to negotiate the release of prisoners in exchange for the release of Gilad Shalit, but in the end, they just let the terrorists go free.
The Israeli government has again closed its eyes to what happens when you appease terrorists and negotiate with evil:
These are the faces of 177 Jews, all of whom were murdered by palestinian terrorists after the terrorists were released from Israeli prisons. Look at their faces. Did they not deserve to live? Do they not deserve justice?
I look at those faces, and I want to cry.
There is no death penalty in Israel, except for Nazi war criminals. But when is enough, enough? An act of terrorism should merit the death penalty. There should be no prisoners to release.
I've said it before, I've said all of this before, many times. I'll say it again now, and I'll likely say it again... my solution would be to take the terrorists locked up in Israeli jails and execute them, one by one, until all our soldiers are released, or I run out of prisoners. That way, the end result is a good one, either way.
Enough is enough right now.

Sadly Peres could run for president here,and win!!! That's how screwed up the United States has become. It's beyond my comprehension that we incarcerate these butchers in the knowledge that someone like Peres will use them as pawns in the deadly game of power where he will sacrifice the security and safety of his countrymen by using them to buy votes.
Of course we have the likes of Ramsey Clark and Lynne Stewart running free. You bet I'm disgusted.

When the Israeli electorate abandons the idea that these sort of commutations or prisoner swaps are unnaceptable. It's strange how 72% of Israelis are ready to attack Iran with nukes, but they still feel that these sorts of deals are permissable. These deals only serve to further encourage hostage taking and murder against Israelis.
