AFP Overlooks Palestinian Prisoner's Seven Murder Convictions
(CAMERA) Tamar Sternthal - Agence France Presse reported in September on demands for "the release of Nasser Abu Hamid, a Palestinian prisoner held by Israel who suffers from cancer," while failing to mention why he is sitting in jail. In December 2002, Hamid confessed in Jerusalem District Court to killing seven Israelis and was sentenced to three life sentences and fifty additional years' imprisonment. He also was convicted of 12 counts of attempted murder and other charges.
