Arabs celebrate more murderers' bodies being returned (update)

I mentioned recently that Israel was returning the body of one of the terrorists responsible for the attack at the yeshiva in Otniel in 2002, where 4 students were killed. Palestinian Arabs celebrated the return of the murderer.

Israel quietly released the other terrorist of the same attack, and naturally there was a large celebratory funeral. 

He was buried next to his fellow terrorist.





It is still unclear why Israel is releasing the bodies of terrorists now. While the state was taken to court to release the bodies, apparently there was never a ruling forcing their return. And Israel is being very quiet about these releases of terrorist remains.

It sure sounds like something that John Kerry pressured Israel to do, in order to keep the sham negotiations going. So instead of getting something real in return, Israel is seeing its peace partner praising terrorists who killed Jews in cold blood.

What a deal.

UPDATE: PMW has the video of another funeral for a terrorist with remarks by a PA official praising him.  This one killed three teenagers in Itamar in 2002.
