The prisoners were all convicted of murders committed prior to the 1993 Oslo accords between Israel and the PLO (Palestine Liberation Organisation). Israeli and Palestinian officials resumed direct talks in Jerusalem in August after a three-year hiatus. As part of the process, Israel agreed to release 104 long-serving Palestinian prisoners.[/QUOTE] It's a painful decision. I hope this deal won't go into a complete waste.
