"In other cases, Israeli Jewish killers of Palestinians have been pardoned by the Israeli state and have continued to take part in anti-Palestinian incitement even as Israel insists it can never release Palestinians “with blood on their hands” as part of negotiated prisoner exchanges. For example, Uzi Sharbav, one of three Israeli Jews convicted of murdering three Palestinian students and injuring dozens in a bomb attack on a school in Hebron in 1983, was freed from prison by Israel’s president in 1990. In March 2008, Sharbav signed a widely distributed statement calling for revenge attacks against Arabs following the Mercaz HaRav shootings.³⁰ These examples fit into a much wider pattern of severe, indiscriminate and collective punishment of Palestinians, combined with impunity for Israeli Jews who commit crimes against the lives and property of Palestinians.""
