A Palestinian terrorist serving three life sentences was filmed by prisoners celebrating his engagement. Mobile phones are a no-no in the slammer, but I’m struck by how well-fed and comfortable everyone looks. So was the PA, which denounced the video.

The Times of Israel explains:

The Maariv daily cited Palestinian Authority sources who expressed disapproval of the video, saying it could result in a tightening of conditions as it depicted life on the inside as being pleasant.

“People who watch the video can fall under the impression that life in Israeli prisons is easy and all they do all the time is have parties and feasts,” the Palestinian sources were quoted as saying.

Why would Palestinians think that?

If you’re wondering about the groom’s rap sheet, Samar Abu Kwick, was involved in a November, 2000 drive-by shooting that killed school teacher Sarah Lisha and soldiers Elad Valenstein and Amit Zanah.
