		Three years ago, when the petition was first introduced to allow the visits for Dirani, who has been held for the last seven years, and Obeid, held for the last 12, Attorney General Elyakim Rubinstein believed the Red Cross visits should be allowed.
		He said it was unreasonable to allow Red Cross visits to Obeid and Dirani as long as no information is forthcoming about the condition of the four Israelis being held by the Hezbollah.
		Barak's opinion weighed in on whether Dirani and Obeid, "as members of a terrorist organization that is far from humanism and for whom harming innocent civilians is their daily bread and butter," were deserving of humanitarian considerations.

		Anis Obeid was born and raised in Lebanon.
