Over forty MKs from the coalition and opposition signed a petition initiated by Chairman of the Knesset Committee, MK (Likud) Yoav Kisch calling to halt all family visits from Gaza to prisoners incarcerated in Israel until such time Hamas releases the bodies of Hadar Goldin HY”D and Oren Shaul HY”D for kvura.
This is part of efforts by the Knesset lobby to return the soldiers’ bodies, headed by MK (Bayit Yehudi) Shuli Muallem. Mrs. Leah Goldin, mother of Lt. Hadar said “We call on the government to implement the cabinet decision that every humanitarian gesture towards Gaza should be examined in terms of promoting the return of Hadar and Oren. The government and Prime Minister have a diverse tool box to use to pressure Hamas. Ministers in the cabinet cannot consider humanitarian considerations for Gazans for as long as Hadar and Oron are held hostage by enemies of the State of Israel”.

Unfortunately we have to come on to silly signing when this should have been done on day one and more!!!
The Israeli government cares only for their soldiers and civilians when it feeds their political ambitions. I ft hey feel like they would look better in the eyes of the world if they let family of terrorist to visit, they will do it even though it makes no sense, and even at the cost of your own citizens
