If they want to go on hunger strike then stop giving them water and see how long they last. This should teach Israel a lesson, NO MORE PRISONERS, no more bargaining chips. This Yom Kippur I suggest that every Jew fast and go to pray for the release of Gilad Shalit and ask for the ground to open under the feet of Hamas, G-d has done it before and can do it again.

gladly and willingly see off their sons (and daughters) on their merry suicide missions. The sheer numbers we´d have to kill are beyond what our society can stomach, so there must be a more effective way to anwser their threats and actual abductions. I shall not divulge what that anwser is, since I am not on a Defence Mimister´s salary... You must figure it for yourselves.

They talk like they haven't been trying to abduct soldiers and citizens for years. Now, if we had the death penalty, we would have no prisoners to give them - it just makes sense!

In addition, the more Israel negotiates with terrorists, the more the Shalit family is in the press, the more kidnaps Israel would get. Can't imagine the Russians talking to Hamas about 500 or 1500 prisoners.

How about more of Cast Lead to come? Except this time, we won't so much care about collateral damage. Chew on that a while. Think we can't? Or won't? Think again. We will destroy you. It will not take us long.

Been reading your comic books again I see. You are unintentionally funny sometimes.

You Israelis have used up all the shock value of the Cast Lead option. Never understood why Israelis didn't slowly begin knocking off the leadership to secure a real answer on Shalit & whether he's still alive.

Why is Israel collecting Pali prisoners? Wouldn't it be more reasonable to simply put them out of their sodden misery once they are caught. Why do the Jewish worldwide put up with the arab nonsense. Wouldn't it be cheaper to put an end to their sodden lives. Why should the Israeli taxpayer spend so much money keeping the SOBS alive? It beats me for One!

were born with a brain but refuse to nourish it for healthy reasons. Leave them to starve if that is their decisions. When their mates see them carried out in boxes, they will soon give in to their hunger. For goodness sake Israel, leave them be to make up their own minds. I am sure they are very aware of the consequences when the body is left un-nourished!

These threats must be taken seriously. No more kidnapped hostages, it's time to roll.

when is Israel waking up? Smarten up and deny ALL visits, put the SOBs on a strikt diet- deny them Red Cross or whatever visits. Then take out the leadership of murderers sitting in comfort in Ramallah... Warn the UNO, Red Cross- set an ultimatum and then DO it. OR: send all the prisoners to Egypt- close the borders for good. Whatever Israel has been dong has not done zippety... so do it the ME way- that is the only language those animals understand.

That doesn't even make sense. If they had a chance to kidnap more, they would have. Your really stretching, now.

Israel must just execute people plotting terror against it. No point keeping prisoners, esp those who have killed atleast 1 israeli. Its justification enough to execute, and avoid such lopsided deals!. Its so painful for terror victims, but god bless Shalit and Israel for this brave exchange!!
