Normally I don't agree with the 'more concessions to terrorists!' rantings, but it's hard to see this as anything else really.
Usually, when you see families of murder victims they seem to be clinging onto the hope that at least they can get justice and something will be *done* about it (again cf the McCartney family. They could have had their brother's killers shot, but they wanted them on trial and in prison). To wait for YEARS for that then suddenly be told "Actually, we're not going to bother, we'll just tell them they're guilty then they can come home, so you can all live happily ever after" must be... actually I haven't a clue how that must feel, I can't think of the words to describe it.
