The Palestinian cause of “resistance” is shared among members of ostensibly secular leftist entities such as the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (of which Basel al-Asmar was a member) and avowedly jihadist entities such as Hamas (which celebrated the birth of the twins) and the supposedly “moderate” Palestinian Authority (with its pay-for-slay program).
Jailed prisoners who murder Israelis are hailed as heroes, and the offspring resulting from prisoners’ smuggled sperm are dubbed “Ambassadors of Freedom.”
The West struggles to understand the zealousness of the Palestinian urge to annihilate Israel from the River to the Sea. It is an all-consuming obsession and way of life that begins, as we see in this incident of the smuggling of sperm, from conception and goes right up to death, and preferably death as a shahid (“martyr”).
“Terrorist who killed Israeli minister reportedly fathers twins using sperm smuggled from prison,” by Danielle Greyman-Kennard, Jerusalem Post, August 24, 2026:
Palestinian prisoner Basel al-Asmar was able to father twins after his sperm was smuggled out of Nafha Prison, according to his wife and Palestinian media reports.
Sanabel Al-Ra’i announced the birth of the twins, a boy and a girl, at a hospital in Kalkilya following an alleged smuggling operation celebrated across Hamas-affiliated media. The conception reportedly took multiple attempts over a two-year period, Asmar’s nephew told Palestinian media.
The Jerusalem Post is unable to confirm the paternity of the twins.
Asmar is serving a life sentence and additional years for his role in the murder of former tourism minister Rehavam Ze’evi at Jerusalem’s Hyatt on October 17, 2001, and for his membership in the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine.
Ra’i and Asmar met in prison when Ra’i was visiting her brother, Shaher Al-Ra’i, a PFLP member suspected of being responsible for the killing of two Israeli hikers, though he was never convicted, according to the Hamas-affiliated Shehab News Agency. The pair later married by proxy.

Does this mean that Israel allows these murderers to sit with visitors in the prison? If so, that needs to stop, and should have never been permitted,itted.
When will the world leard (including Israel)?
