Former minister Yizhar Shay, who mentored his son Sgt Yaron Uri Shay, who died in the Battle of Kerem Shalom, explained why the government must return abductees even at the cost of freeing murderers
“I write these things with trembling hands. The abominable Nohva terrorist who killed my son is currently sitting in an Israeli prison, I would be happy to watch his execution. As is customary in the United States, where family members are invited to watch the execution of the murderers of their loved ones. I would like to watch him breathe his last breaths, if possible in terrible excruciating agony and great suffering. But if it is possible to bring home Israeli abductees from Gaza in exchange for the poor soul of this scumbag and his friends in the human sewer called Hamas, I call on the Prime Minister and the cabinet ministers: release the abominable murderers and bring the abductees home.”
This is what former minister Yizhar Shay wrote on his Twitter account, who befriended his son Samar Yaron Uri Shay, the late Nahal Patrol fighter who fell in battle against dozens of terrorists on the morning of Black Sabbath when he was 21 years old. In his conversation with Ben Caspit and Aryeh Eldad, at the beginning of his words he stated: I received a lot of responses, most of them supportive and excited, some of them disagree with my opinion and that’s fine, I respect that, the subject is a heavy subject, I can understand that it is also controversial.”
The former minister added: “But it was important for Hila, my wife, and me to convey this message so that it resonates up to the level of the decision makers in the war cabinet, because they are currently in a place where they may make significant decisions, some of which also involve despicable terrorists who will have to be released back to the place where they came from. We recognize the fact that life is more important and there are 134 abductees in Gaza, in ditches and pits in inhumane conditions, in immediate danger to their lives at any given moment. They should be the highest priority, even if it means freeing that despicable person who took the life of our dearest From all our Yaron, even if it means releasing him, we want to see the abducted and the abducted return home and that is more important than our private revenge against that damned terrorist.”
He also stated: “I think the official position of the State of Israel is correct, Hamas will be eliminated. If it takes a year or two it doesn’t matter, I don’t think it will take three or four months anyway, but there is a long date here, we need to reach the various arms of the octopus , we need to eliminate all kinds of leaders hiding in the Middle East. We have more work to do there.”
At the end of his speech, he said: “I remind all of us, we are talking about the fact that if we release terrorists from Nohva, we risk terrorist attacks, there are 134 people who are under attack as early as tomorrow morning and they may, God forbid, lose their lives, may, God forbid, be killed there together or separately. So the attack has already been found. and orders us to release them in any possible way.”
