Ya'alon: Voting with heavy heart for prisoner release
None
Defense Minister Moshe Ya’alon said he was voting with a "heavy heart" in favor of the decision to release prisoners. However, he noted, "I will oppose the release of Israeli Arab terrorists. Mahmoud Abbas does not represent them."
Ya'alon added, "There is a heavy price in the decision to release terrorists, in terms of justice, law and deterrence. I wish we were not facing this dilemma.” (Atilla Shmolfavi)
