Palestinians have killed more Palestinians in the past year than the IDF has. They don't even repect the lives of their brothers. The impovrished Palestinians have only themselves to blame by empowering terroists as leaders rather than moderates who seek to live in peace with Israel.

make a deal. that means israel can stay cool and do a reasonable exchange (no blood on hands)

WHAT KIND OF LEFTIST PROPAGANDA GARBAGE ARE YOU SPEWING FORTH? HAVE YOU NO CLUE AS TO WHAT IS OCCURRING IN THE M.E.? I THINK YOU SHOULD JUST STICK TO YOUR KIPPERS AND EGGS AND BE QUIET!

and all mothers are some angels. how they can handle the fact of their childreen been kidnapped, killed, captured, hurted ! All mothers (all nations) must be hand in hand to stop the crieings ! love Atilla Liman Karagözoğlu

Reading your post one would assume that Israel has nothing better to do than highly train soldiers so they can go and bother "totally innocent" palestinians. How credible is that to a normal and unbiased person?

manipulate them. Rather sad that the whole Israeli media and much of the political echelon jumped on this issue. Even Shalit's father is not sure if it's Gilad and if it is it is not year clear when it was recorded. Hamas says 'sit up and beg' and the press and politicians do it. Shame on them !!

Abu Mujahid said, "We are treating hime according to our religion's instruction on how to deal with war prisoners." Will this include the same fate as Mr. Pearl or the many US Marine's who have been captured by like-minded murderes? Israel and Israeli's need to fight like they have never fought before. May the God of Abraham, Issac and Jacob, the LORD be with her and protect her until the end of days.

Don't for one minute take anything they say seriously. Don't trust terrorists. And, for the millionth time, DON'T NEGOTIATE WITH TERRORISTS. Of course the whole thing is a complete set-up. I don't know whether they recorded it a few days ago, or a year ago. But I can guarantee you 100% that it is Gilad talking the words of the terrorist scum. Don't for one single second think that he could actually utter words like that. Those bastards are cruel, manipulative, vindictive, and completely heartless. The terrorists deserve to die. Nothing less.

the UN never holds other Nations responible. Does the UN cite The Qur'an as its Foreign Policy?!? WTF?

1000 arab prisoners are worth 1 of our israeli soldiers,

so you think this is funny? an innocent soldier being kidnapped, just goes to show how you people think , your whole religion is based on cruelty. and dont worry one way or the other we will get Gilad back.

I know you have a delta force like the one here. That can go in and get him sent in the special forces of the idf and show the terrorist how the idf negotiates with terrorist.
