Yigal Shock, brother of Yossi Shock who was murdered in 2005 when terrorists shot his car as he was making his way to his home in Beit Haggai, criticized on Monday Noam Shalit’s decision to come to the High Court and respond to the appeals against the release of terrorists in exchange for his son.
“[Noam Shalit] cannot take a side in this issue,” Shock told Arutz Sheva. “We like him very much. He’s right with his side but we’re also right.”
Shock emphasized that his real problem is with High Court President Dorit Beinisch, who allowed Shalit to be present in the court during the hearing.
He added, “I think the government should take other steps, such as a military operation or economic steps, and not release more than 1,000 murderers.
“I think [Gilad Shalit] should come home,” he added. “We all love him and are waiting for him, but we also love our brothers and our sisters who were murdered.”
Yossi Shock's murderer is one of the 1,027 terrorists who will be released as part of the Shalit deal.
