The decision today in the Cabinet to force foreign observers on me in the prisons to check the condition of the Nukhba terrorists is a serious mistake. Our hostages in Gaza receive abuse, not visits and concern for rights. These visits harm deterrence, negotiations with Hamas, raise the morale of the terrorists, may lead to prison riots, and beyond that it is a violation of Israeli sovereignty, and an opening for international intervention in other issues in the future. No state that respects its sovereignty and security would allow this to happen. The British act as if the Mandate government exists, and we cooperate with this.
