Very
distressing to see the singing and dancing going on at the Shalit tent
outside Netanyahu's office a few blocks away from here as the
announcement that Israel had agreed to release more than a thousand
terrorists, including hundreds who were serving life sentences for
terror attacks such as the Sbarro carnage in Jerusalem in August 2001.
The partying is pretty obscene given what is inevitably coming down the
pike...Rejoicing that Gilad's name will forever be linked with the next
terror attack??
Celebrations at the Shalit tent in Jerusalem last night
What
are the chances that we'll see another family sitting in exactly the
same position as the Shalits a year from now, now that all these
murderers will be running around free..what exactly is the deterrent now
against more of the same Hamas war crimes??
Sure enough, this morning Hamas'
Khalid Mashal "promised" his people that this would not be their last
effort to "liberate" all their prisoners--now there's a real
surprise! I was actually surprised that Reshet Bet carried it on their
broadcast...
As several commentators have noted--the death penalty for terrorists
is one answer..why are our tax shekels paying for murderers of Jews to
sit in jail watching TV, studying for degrees and eating kosher food?
An unimaginable ordeal is almost over for the
devastated Shalits whose lives will never be the same...but save a bit of sympathy for the Cohens, Levys, Ohayons,
Goldbergs etc who will be sitting in the same chairs over the next few
years.

Thank you for this post - when I heard the news the other morning,here in Germany, my heart sank. Of course I was happy for Shalit's family. But what kind of message does this send? That ONE Jewish soldier can only be released by terrorists if Israel releases a thousand more such terrorists? Where's the fairness in that? How can you reason with such madness? Talk about shooting oneself in the foot.
