JERUSALEM – Prime Minister Ehud Olmert this week granted amnesty to 32 wanted terrorists from Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas' Fatah organization, WND has learned.
Olmert the past year has pardoned hundreds of terrorists on condition that they disarm and refrain from terrorism, but many refused to lay down their weapons and continued to carry out attacks.
