West Bank Murder Arrest: A Reminder of Shalit Deal's Price
(Ha'aretz) Amos Harel - The arrest of the killers of Malachi Rosenfeld highlighted the ever-growing price of the 2011 prisoner exchange that freed kidnapped soldier Gilad Shalit. Hamas' West Bank terror network is now run mainly by prisoners freed in that deal. After leaving jail, they return to doing what they were doing before, because that's what they know best. The person suspected of actually firing the gun that killed Rosenfeld, Maad Hamad, was arrested by the PA. Since the beginning of the month, the PA has arrested 250 people suspected of belonging to Hamas' military wing. Some are suspected of planning kidnappings or shooting attacks against Israelis, but in addition, some are suspected of planning attacks against senior PA officials.
