Zakariya Zubeidi, 31, the Jenin area Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigade commander of Fatah on Wednesday night traveled freely, no longer concerned about being targeted by an IDF force or in an IDF surgical helicopter strike.

The arch terrorist, who has the blood of many Israelis on his hands, was permitted to travel to Ramallah, leaving Jenin for the first time in eight years. He is one of the fortunate 24, the latest recipient of Prime Minister Ehud Olmert’s “good will gestures” granting amnesty to the terrorists, removing them from the wanted list. Zubeidi and others reportedly signed a declaration denouncing terror.

While Israel continues granting amnesty, espousing good will and speaking of peace with her enemies, the army remains on heightened alert for possible attacks in the north and south and Gilad Shalit remains in Hamas captivity.
