That prisoner swap in Israel; names of some released

GlobalSecurity.org:  Israeli Soldier, 477 Palestinians Freed in Prisoner Swap  "Under the deal, Israel is to release an additional 550 Palestinian prisoners within two months. An estimated 6,000 Palestinians remain in Israeli jails. Hamas leaders have vowed to see them all released.
"The deal was controversial. Families of some of the Israeli victims of Palestinian attacks were angry to see the attackers go free. Other Israelis feared the prisoner release would lead to an increase in violence.
"Palestinians were upset that some of their most prominent figures in Israeli custody were excluded from the deal."  Spread some of this on your flower beds.  And this.


Claudia Rosett: The Moral Vertigo of Ban Ki-Moon  "In Gaza and the West Bank, preparations have been underway to welcome these terrorists as heroes, and celebrate their release. That’s horrifying, but no surprise. These are places where people danced in the streets and gave out candy to celebrate the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the U.S. The leaders of both Hamas and the Palestinian Authority have done well for themselves over the years by pursuing perpetual conflict and indoctrinating the people living under them in the ways of terror and hatred."
"But why does the secretary-general of the United Nations have to hop on this blood-soaked bandwagon?"
....
 "An obvious question follows. When the next terrorist hit on Israel takes place, will Ban’s speech-writers describe him as “disappointed,” or “concerned,” or maybe even “deeply concerned”? "

Names of prisoners in Shalit deal trickle through Arab media  "Hamas-affiliated websites, Arab media post partial lists of Palestinian prisoners included in prisoner exchange deal. List includes terrorists involved it attacks which claimed dozens of Israeli lives."
Western leftists will begin food and medical shipments to the families of the terrorists and murderers in three...two,,,one... 

Al Jazeera publishes the list of the first prisoners to be released. Two listed here: 
Abd al-Hadi Rafa Ghanim...16 life sentences
Khamis Zaki Abd al-Hadi Aqel...21 life sentences

How many innocent victims translate into this many life sentences?
