18-May-12: Another Shalit-for-terrorists terrorist is back in prison

Yet another of the 1,027 terrorists whose freedom from Israeli prison was extorted in October 2011 in the deal to release an Israeli hostage from Hamas captivity, was re-arrested today by Israeli forces. Though Israel has not yet identified him, PalToday, an Arabic source (hat tip Challah Hu Akbar), says his name is Arif KhaIid Yunis Fawakhiriya who was sentenced in 2002 to a term of 28 years for attempted murder and other terrorist offences.

There have been several such arrests in the last few months.

According to the Israeli government announcements made at the time of the Shalit transaction, terrorists who are re-offend and are recaptured will be sent back to prison to complete the terms to which they were originally sentenced.

About us

THIS ONGOING WAR is not part of the activity of the Malki Foundation which was founded by us, Frimet and Arnold Roth of Jerusalem, on September 11, 2001. But it is inspired by the same tragic circumstances. The Malki Foundation (also known by its Hebrew name: Keren Malki) is a memorial to the life of our daughter, Malki who was murdered at the age of 15 in a massacre in the centre of Jerusalem carried out by Hamas.

Beyond its function as a remembrance of a beautiful life, the foundation provides tangible, concrete, invaluable support daily to several thousand Israeli families from every part of the religious and socio-economic spectrum: Christian, Moslem, Jewish, Druze and others who care at home for a seriously disabled child.

Good for the soul | The Malki Foundation

If you care to make a positive and constructive contribution to the care of Israeli children with special needs - whether they're Christian, Moslem, Jewish, Druze or unconnected to any particular faith community - you can't do better than direct your donation to the work of the Malki Foundation.

It's the charitable organization we, the bloggers who produce This Ongoing War, established in 2001 in memory of our murdered daughter. Her name is Malki.

Keren Malki (in Hebrew, Keren means 'foundation' or 'fund') is efficient, effective, non-sectarian, non-political and unique in the good work it does. Thousands of families from every part of our richly diverse society here in Israel have benefited in concrete and meaningful ways. Donations to Keren Malki are tax-effective in Israel, Canada, UK and the United States.

There's also plenty of background at www.malkifoundation.org as well as on the Malki Foundation Blog.
