1. The truth is
Arie   (07.12.06)
That history has proven over and over that the IRC has O interest in protecting Jews. From their assisting nazis escape justice after the Shoah, to the present, it is a long history of waste!
2. I would like to transmit a bit of tranquility
keren ,   sao paulo   (07.12.06)
to Gilad's family,if I could... No suffering can be worst of the one they are enduring by now. I hope they get a Light of relief and happiness very soon.
3. Red Cross becomes Red Crescent
John ,   NZ   (07.12.06)
just to appease Islamic nations.. and they would not want to see a Jewish prisoner to offend Islam
4. A Question re Red Cross
Peter Morris ,   New Zealand   (07.12.06)
Does the Red Cross visit Palestinian prisoners immediatley they are captured? Do they produce a report?
5. #1-Yes, but that's irrelevant. IRC cld confirm his condition
Russell ,   Miami   (07.12.06)
Do you blame Gilad's father for requesting that a neutral 3rd party (for once the IRC's anti-Jewish bent may benefit the situation) see him and confirm he is being treated well and is in good health? I am certain that the IRC would visit Gilad if Hamas allowed it - if that is your point.
6. why the red cross does not see Gilad
alan ,   frisco   (07.12.06)
The Red Cross would be breaking down the door if Israel arrested a terrorist and put him in jail. But when Gilad is captured, forget about it. Gag me with a spoon. Mr Shalit is a mega mensch in all regards. Our hearts go out to him and his family
7. Further to no. 4
Dave ,   Haifa   (07.12.06)
I think the point is that Israel does not regard Palestinian prisoners as Prisoners of War - whereas the Hamas made a statement that they _DO_ regard Gilad as a POW - and so the IRC should be involved as per the Geneva POW convention
