Mother of killer terrorist prisoners "counts the holidays without her children" while "pain tears at her heart" that she can't see her murderer sons
Headline: “56 holidays in the occupation’s prison cells – Abd Al-Jawad and Muhammad Shamasneh: Two brothers from Jerusalem in the grip of a life sentence”
“Fifty-six holidays (i.e., 28 years multiplied by 2 for two terrorist prisoners) have passed without Um Al-Abd Shamasneh having seen her two prisoner sons Abd Al-Jawad and Muhammad Shamasneh (i.e., terrorists, murdered 3 people together with accomplices, and Abd Al-Jawad also murdered a fourth victim). She has been waiting for 28 years and counting the nights, days, years, seasons, and holidays without her children. Currently she is adding yet another holiday to those that preceded it, at a time when her two children are in the occupation’s prison and in the darkness of its solitary confinement, and the pain tears at her heart like all the prisoners’ mothers.
After more than a quarter century, the two brothers are holding onto hope and dreaming of the day when they will shatter the chains and go free.
In November 1993, the two brothers Abd Al-Jawad, 58, and Muhammad, 52, from the town of Qatanna northwest of Jerusalem, were arrested on charges of membership in the Fatah Movement and carrying out a self-sacrificing operation (i.e., terror attack) against three Jewish settlers in the settlement of Ramot in northeast Jerusalem (sic., Ramot is a neighborhood in northwest Jerusalem). The occupation (i.e., Israeli) court sentenced them to 3 life sentences and another 30 years (sic., Abd Al-Jawad was sentenced to 4 life sentences), after they were cruelly interrogated for more than two months to extract a confession from them on the charges attributed to them. The occupation used all the forms of interrogation and torture against them.”
