Some of the detainees arrested at Ben-Gurion International Airport during Operation Welcome to Palestine drew swastikas on the holding cells in the airport, officials have learned.
A Spanish and French national were already released and sent home, but an inspection of their cell revealed the swastikas, prompting officials to stress “these are dangerous people who operate under the guise of being peace activists”.
As of Tuesday morning, 57 of the detainees remain in jail in Israel. They are anarchists who took part in the flytilla, seeking to enter the country and make their way to PA (Palestinian Authority) autonomous areas to join the anti-Israel efforts in those areas. The daily Yisrael HaYom reports most of them are French nationals, who simply refuse to board flights back to their own country.

Keep them in jail
Drop the leftists that are upset at eisner in with these guys
Wanna bet that if interrogated, they’d proudly admit it and say they were protesting Israeli “nazism” and are not anti-semitic?
How did they get implements to do this work?!
Send them home and lock the doors to PEACE ACTIVISTS, who are Arab supporters in hatred and terror towards the residents of Israel.
Let them continue with their hunger strike and drawings..
