MK Yisrael Hasson (Kadima) a former deputy Shin Bet chief, responded sharply to the declared intention by the government to release Islamic leader Sheikh Raed Salah.
"Netanyahu and Lieberman are serial liberators [of terrorists]. In 1997 they freed [Hamas spiritual leader] Sheikh Yassin and in 2010 they release Salah. These two are once again leading us to the brink," said Hasson.
