For more than 20 years of Yahya Senwar in prison, retired prison commander Betty Lahat was responsible for much of his imprisonment. 

"Sinwar set up committees in prison whose job it was to test the credibility of the prisoners, sent prisoners to stab guards and agitate the area, and he was always behind the scenes, hidden. He would take a sucker, tell him, 'stab a prisoner,' and then say of him, 'The man is crazy, he has nothing to lose.' 

He never stood in front and took responsibility or led the prisoners. On the contrary. When investigations began after the events he organized, Senwar was trembling with fear. Hiding behind others."

Today, when I see him in Gaza go out and get excited, I say to myself, how does this rabbit suddenly become a hero? ".
