A Pardon? Excuse Me?

Benji over at What War Zone is “having a moment” over an entry he found in the Jerusalem Post’s online daily:

Israel has informed the Palestinian Authority that it will stop pursuing 32 Fatah gunmen in the West Bank, a PA security official said Sunday. The official said the decision to pardon the gunmen belonging to Fatah’s armed wing, the Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, came after a three-month “trial period” during which they had refrained from carrying out attacks against Israel.

TRIAL PERIOD??? Trial periods are for Adobe Acrobat, not for TERRORISTS!!! Benji writes.
This next bit sent Benji over the edge:
The names of the gunmen have been completely removed from Israel’s list of wanted Palestinians,” the official said. “From now on the gunmen will be allowed to move around freely and without fear of being targeted by Israel.

Have you ever tried to get off a telemarketer’s list? IT’S IMPOSSIBLE!!! Unless you’re a terrorist apparently. Next time Jerusalem Post calls me, I’m telling them my name is Jachnun Ahmed Malawach.

Here here, Ahmed. Pass the tomato puree for that Jachnun part.
