Head of the Yisrael Beytenu party MK Avigdor Lieberman spoke of the decision to return the bodies of five dead terrorists to their families in Hebron, saying, “This is a wrong step, meant to appease the terrorists, and it is akin to paying a ransom to those who threaten Israel.” He added that “It is a shameful surrender to the Palestinians’ threats, one that will not only fail to bring about quiet, but will bring about an increase in terrorism.”
