Freed prisoner killed on terror mission

And now they're freeing more. From the Jerusalem Post, with thanks to Kemaste:

A former security prisoner released in January 2004 in the deal struck with Hizbullah to secure the return of the bodies of three soldiers and businessman Elhanan Tannenbaum was one of two gunmen shot and killed by soldiers last Tuesday night while attempting an attack at Har Bracha, The Jerusalem Post has learned.

Atsem Mansour, 29, a Fatah Tanzim member from the Balata refugee camp was imprisoned in Israel between October 2001 and January 2004 for his involvement in terrorism. He was one of 462 security prisoners released in exchange for Tannenbaum and the bodies of Staff-Sgts. Benny Avraham, Adi Avitan and Omar Sawayid.

Details were revealed as preparations got under way for the release of 500 security prisoners who will be freed Monday morning at five West Bank checkpoints and at the Erez crossing in the Gaza Strip as a gesture to Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas.

Israel should hang terrorists. Afterwords, turning them lose would be harmless. Also, darkly amusing.

Capital punishment or prolonged incarceration is not a good solution for these guys. Prefrontal lobotomy would be a more appropriate treatment. That way, the community would be compelled to expend its resources on the constant care these zombies would require, thus diverting the allocation of resources from the support of active jihadis. Seeing these spoonfed botanicoids all around them might also provide a deterrent to other would-be jihadis. Take up arms against the non-muslims and end up living the rest of your life in diapers and drool, a fate worse than death to the hubristic Arab.

Now if this were set in cartoon times it would be funny watching police catch a crook who does'nt measure up and thowing him back because of size limit.

Now since this is set in our real time it is not funny but down right sickening,always thought it was cats that had nine lives.

Wonder if they tag 'em before setting them free and if we find you again TAG,YOURE IT.

There's a thought: surgically induced incontinence prior to release. What muslim could take himself seriously in Pullups? Lobotomy also is not without merit.

So much for the concept that prisoner releases are on the roadmap to peace!

Kind of reminds me of our southern border, pick them up, take them to the border... they beat the Border Patrol back to the starting point of the daily game.
