Pilate was appeasing Caiaphus and knew how to work 'the masses' for public effect.
Suggest urgent request to Isreal for Dual citizenship for Terri. Ask Isreal to intervene - send plane to pick up Terri. Iceland just granted Fischer citizenship and he was freed from Jail in Japan. This would be a great play for Isreal as it would lock in Conservative Christian base support for Isreal. Then World Court could intervene - there would be no U.S. Jurisdiction any longer. I don't know if the family is related to the famous Schindler of WWII who saved the Jews - but this might help encourage Isreal. Have the Vatican help with the arrangement. God Bless.
Here is the Isreali consulate in Miami's web site -
