Hammas has told us often what they wants for Gilad. Release of hundreds or thousands of prisoners with blood on their hands so that they can kill more Jews, and a bleeding heart from the rest of the world. Do these arrogant lawyers think they will get a better offer. Hamas would not even swap Gilad for them - Sharks dont get much world sympathy.

that Gilad Shalit has been held prisoner in Gaza. The Israeli government waged a war ostensibly to gain his release immediately after his capture. The action was totally unsuccessful in achieving that objective, and little has been done to gain his release since. The only explanation for not allowing Shalit's lawyers to enter Gaza now is that the Israeli government fears that two French lawyers will be successful where they have failed. They are punishing Shalit and his parents to preserve their egos. Shame on the Israeli government! My thoughts are with Shalit and his family. I sincerely hope that reason will prevail and that your boy makes it home soon.

Arab terrorists don't take hostages and keep them alive. As much as it breaks my heart to admit this, the Hamas dogs that kidnapped Galid have killed him and continue to dangle hope in the face of his family. It is a joke to them. They are heartless scum and must be eradicated.

Olmert and his cronies ostensibly believe that Gilad Shalit is alive. If that is the case they should let the lawyers in. I am in total agreement with #2 Layla. olmert you are on an ego trip on the back of Gilad Shalit. Your precious german intermediaries have produced nothing. Let the French try they can do no worse than you. Even the French can sometimes do the right thing. Then have the decency and patriotism to resign. To the Shalit family - our thoughts and prayers are with you. May your son be reunited with you "speedily and in our time"
