Israel is now so weak and corrupt that it can be compared to Sodom and Gommorah . But does it deserved to be destroyed ? NO ! It is true that there are many failings which have grown like a cancer ! However they are also many good points . Weed out the weak and corrupt ,stand up to your enemies - more than you already do !!! Do not give in !. A small country ,you are being maligned by the UN ( supported by ARAB OIL AND ARAB TERROR) . You must be something special , to be continously on the worlds conscience .

Let the SOB rot in jail. Shalit is most likely not alive any more and if he is, only G-d knows what his condition is. He will never be a normal human being again after being in captivity with the murdering "Palestinians." They kidnap someone and then say he is a legitimate POW. !!

Barghouti is the Palestinian Mandela If he is released,he along with Abu Mazen,Dahalan etc will be able to form a front with whom Israel can deal and discuss final status agreements. The release of prisoners held over 20 years,women and children seems reasonable,as does those jailed for crimes pre-Oslo,dependant on who they are and what exactly they did. I think we should should use this opportunity to release Bharghouti and see if he has the ability to transform himself and Palestine into a viable partner for peace
