Ari Fulds murderer to be set free

REVEALED: This is the shocking list of terrorists Israel is about to set free

In a deeply unsettling development, the Israeli government is set to release 602 Palestinian prisoners, including notorious terrorists responsible for deadly attacks, as part of a hostage exchange deal.

Among those set for release are Nael Barghouti, who was convicted of murdering bus driver Mordechai Yekuel in 1978, and Abu Ghanem, convicted of the brutal murders of Haim Haviv, Alon Govberg, and Richard Lakin in 2015. Their release, scheduled for this Saturday, has ignited outrage, particularly among the families of their victims.

Abu Ghanem, who was sentenced to three life sentences and an additional 60 years in prison for his role in a vicious bus attack in Jerusalem’s Armon Hanatziv neighborhood, is among the high-profile terrorists due for release. The attack, carried out in October 2015, claimed the lives of three innocent people—Haim Haviv, 78; Alon Govberg, 51; and Richard Lakin, 76—and left fifteen others wounded. Ghanem's actions, along with his numerous convictions for attempted murder, make his release particularly controversial.

Equally controversial is the expected release of Nael Barghouti, a 68-year-old terrorist who was involved in the 1978 murder of bus driver Mordechai Yekuel. Barghouti was initially released in the 2011 Shalit deal but was later returned to prison after violating the terms of his release. Despite serving a 45-year sentence, Barghouti is now slated for extradition as part of the deal.

In an especially painful blow to the Fuld family, terrorist Khalil Jabarin, responsible for the murder of Ari Fuld in 2019, is also on the list for release. Jabarin, who murdered the beloved Israeli-American father of four at a shopping center in Gush Etzion, was sentenced to life imprisonment for the attack. The news of his impending release has understandably caused great distress for the Fuld family, with Eytan Fuld, Ari's brother, speaking out against the deal.

Eytan, who was informed of the release just a month ago, expressed his sorrow and frustration, stating that the true sorrow stems from the possibility of further victims in the future. While he grieves for his brother, his focus is also on the potential for more bereaved families, a reality he fears will only worsen because of this deal. Despite the pain, he remains steadfast in his belief that "the eternity of Israel will not deceive."

This release, which has sparked outrage and debate, highlights the ongoing tension surrounding hostage exchanges and the complex dynamics of Israeli-Palestinian relations. As families of the victims mourn and express their fears for future generations, many are left wondering whether this deal will only serve to empower terrorists and put more lives at risk.
