Do you remember the PLO Arab terrorists who used a Church to protect themselves? Some European countries agreed to take them in. Big mistake.
Israel will tell the European Union that it will not allow the 13 Palestinian fugitives from the Bethlehem Church of the Nativity incident to return to the Palestinian territories.
The thirteen were deported from Bethlehem to Europeans countries following the siege of the Church of the Nativity during Operation Defensive Shield in May and April 2002.
According to EU reports, the fugitives’ stay in EU countries has been extended twice, and cannot be legally extended a third time.
Israeli officials said that should the fugitives find their way into the Palestinian territories, “they would meet with justice,” Army Radio reported.
Some of the European countries had expressed fear that the Bethlehem deportees would turn to crime or terrorism because of their problematic background.
Don’t they mean “resistance operations”? Because, surely the Europeans did not consider them to be perpetrating terrorist acts while they were in Israel. After all, who would volunteer to take in terrorists?
And by the way, here is more on their “problematic background”:
Residents of Bethlehem have complained that some of the fugitives, especially those belonging to Fatah, had imposed a reign of intimidation in the city. Two of them, now in Spain and Ireland, are also believed to have raped two Christian girls before killing them under the pretext of collaboration with Israel.
Enjoy, Europe.
