The return of the Oknin couple to Israel has led to blessings from all corners of the political spectrum, but there are also those who have chosen to attack.
This is MK Knesset White Brush, Ruth Wasserman Landa, who previously worked as an adviser to the late President Shimon Peres. "Stop flattering Erdogan!" She tweeted. "What happened in Turkey is terrorism for the sake of political gain.
He succeeded and it could be a dangerous precedent for Israelis traveling abroad! "
On the other hand, MKs from the opposition actually focused on greetings.
"Direct power to all who engage in the craft."
Her faction member, Galit Distel Atbrian, said: "The good end of the Oknin family is the best news I could get this week. Congratulations to everyone involved in the craft including the president and government officials. The thought that these parents will spend the Sabbath with their children is pure happiness in my life."

The Oknin couple returned to Israel this morning (Thursday), after being released from Turkish prison yesterday.
A political source told Israel Today that the Turkish president's personal involvement enabled the end of the affair and new specifications that reached Israel today about the process that led to the happy ending of the affair, show that once Erdogan's bureau recognized the compromise and gave approval to end it.
Stop flattering Erdogan!
What has happened in Turkey is terrorism for the sake of political gain.
He succeeded and it could be a dangerous precedent for Israelis traveling abroad!

The Israeli effort to release the couple began immediately upon learning of the couple's extension of detention on Friday.
Prime Minister Bennett has two daily assessments of the situation to examine where things stand.
The discussions were attended by Foreign Minister Yair Lapid and senior officials of the ministry, Mossad chief Dedi Barnea and his representatives, National Security Council chief Eyal Hulta and his representatives, and other senior officials.
