Seems like he doesn’t dedicate too many thoughts much to those 1000-some victims and 20.000 injured in the Second Intafada. Another possibility is that he simply is not aware of the fact that almost half of the prisoners are terrorists convicted for murder and terrorism – I doubt that possibility though.
Seems like we’re playing the blame game again, Villy.
