What happened to the pictures? Exhibit A, Exhibit B
Will they ever come back? Yes and no

Don't have any of the recently-deceased handy in order to host yet another dramatic, media-driven funeral? Don't let that stop you:

Here is what a handful of random people think about this article. But first, the fine print:

The opinions expressed here, even where approved for display, do not necessarily reflect the opinions of this website, the management, or any other entity or organization, with the exception of the Vast Zionist Conspiracy. Those opinions we represent in style, yo. Please keep the language in these comments clean, as this is intended to be a family-friendly, work-friendly website. Comments not compliant with this policy will be edited for content where necessary. Abusive or otherwise illegal comments will be reported to the proper authorities, up to and including the aforementioned Vast Zionist Conspiracy. The Management cannot and will not be held responsible for commenters making a spectacle of themselves, even if The Management are the said commenters in question. In other words, don't take yourself so seriously, folks. We're all here to discuss the news, and more importantly, to have fun. Now go get yourself into some OCD treatment program—you obviously need it if you actually read all of this mess.

Prisoners who die in Israeli prisons?

This reminds me of an interview KFI's Bill Handel did last year... I wish I had saved the audio, but unfortunately, I didn't. Bill interviewed an author who had interviewed Palestinian prisoners in Israeli jails. It seems Israel has a policy of being extra nice to prisoners in hopes that their good treatment will change the prisoners' minds about Israel. During the interview, the author asks a Palestinian prisoner about his time in jail. The guy was happy. He said he ate well, was treated well, and liked his Israeli guards. Then the author asked the prisoner if he'd still try to kill Israelis when he got out of prison. The Palestinian said yes, he would. He would kill the people he now liked because it was the duty of all muslims to kill Jews.

Such sweet people.
