6. Here's the difference, idiots
Kyle ,   Southpark, CO, USA   (03.22.09)
Gilad Shalit is an innocent hostage. The Palestinians who are in jail are CONVICTED CRIMINALS.
7. we could have freed him in 2006 war
Golan ,   SL   (03.22.09)
the problem is not the military or the nation per se. It is the political will to fight a necessary war. Had Israel launched the 2006 war a week earlier in response to incessant rocket attacks Shalit would not have been kidnapped. Had Israel not released Hizbullah prisoners befor confirmation that Goldwasser and Regev were still alive Hamas would not be able to "askl for the moon." And we could have flipped Gaza over in search for Gilad in 2009 but again the political leadership was worthless.
8. Two state solution, state of war or state without arabs
Yoni   (03.22.09)
We should give back any prisoners in the same state we get ours in, if Gilad is dead Hamass should get body bags. Gaza should be sealed until Gilad is sent back, no food, no water, no electricity and no outside media!

Ok !! prohibit the right of visiting palestine prisoners by the relatives! Throw them into a dark gutter....all right BUT.....after it you will called :TERRORIST too... IS IT OK WITH YOU MR. #1????

12. Bring 400 prisoners to Gaza border
How to ,   deal with Gaza   (03.22.09)
show them on Al Jazeera, tell Gazans they can go inside after soldier comes home.
13. Kidnapped Israeli soldiers.
Robert Bernier ,   Tel Aviv   (03.22.09)
In the war against terror, Human rights, a Judeo-Christian value, should be considered differently. Israel would do well to cancel the visits of Palestinian prisoners' families, no longer allow detainees to complete their studies, and worsen their upgraded imprisonment conditions. Pressure on the part of Palestinian prisoners' families would greatly assist in presenting Hamas as failing to do enough to free its prisoners. This could prompt the group to soften its positions on kidnapped Israeli soldiers. Israel should adapt to the new war as explained at : http://xrl.us/bi3q3
14. 100% of israeli prisoners for 5% of palestinians .. not fair
Jalal ,   Gaza   (03.22.09)
15. Primitive Palestinian Mothers
Cynthia ,   USA   (03.22.09)
You're in no position to demand anything from Israel. These cretins you raised will remain in prison until Gilad is released safely to Israel. Go flap your burqas at your leadership and prove Gilad is alive!
16. #2 What is sick
(03.22.09)
and sociopathic is how Israelis can still expect Shalit to be realeased after they murdered hundreds of civilians in Gaza.
17. Cut off the head!
Robert Haymond ,   Ashdod, Israel   (03.22.09)
If we destroy the leadership (head) of Hamas, the rest will decompose.
18. 1 soldier=12,000 civilian
rawhi   (03.22.09)
As good will Israeli should release women, children and infants in its prisons.
19. The Haifa Bombers need the Jailed experts to be released

22. Israel gets vilified by the ...
EST ,   Miami USA   (03.22.09)
petro-dollar hungry countries, by those led by the left wingers and those anti-semites that have joined forces to bash Israel - the only Jewish country in the world. If Israel is going to get bad mouthed regardless of what it does...give the Palestinian convicts the same treatment they afford Gilad. No visits, no communication of any kind, no red cross, no lawyers and tell their people that prisoners have been injured or died in prison riots, etc., etc. and some are alive, some are not ... which ones? who knows or will say...as there is no info. released on them let their families wonder who has a chance of coming home still... and in what condition... Every time the international community says something...tell them the same info that is released on Gilad will be released for ONE of them. Let them choose which one.
23. To# 10 Hamas holds Shalit ... Hamas was elected by Palestini
(03.22.09)
There is no need to muddy the waters further. Hamas is seen as a terrorist organization by most civilized countries...the key word here being civilized. The Palestinians ELECTED Hamas to govern them ... they are way way too far from being civilized and you cannot deal with them as you would with the civilized world. How can you treat thugs that disembowel Israeli men with their BARE HANDS as regular people? or have you forgotten what happened to the two Israeli soldiers taken to the PA police station? and that was even before Hamas was elected. The Palestinians know what they want fully well. Treating them as they deserve would not be lowering Israel to a terrorist level ...should Israel open the doors to the jails and them mow down the escaping convicts ... is a nice dream but that is not civilized :-) Having convicts incommunicado is not terror. The sovereign country decides how to run their prisons ...
24. Cruelty
SR ,   Israel   (03.22.09)
Why do we give them humanitarian aid and let their terrorists sitting in our jails get visitors, phone calls, and even money? If they do not give us Gilad Shalit, we won't give them any of their people. Eye for eye.....
25. I am ashamed to..
Alex ,   UK   (03.22.09)
..share planet with these people.
26. Perhaps seeing their prisoner relatives in a cage...
William ,   Israel   (03.23.09)
dragged out to the Negev and left there for a few days in the open heat/cold should help dissuade a few of these terrorist family members from such protests. Knowing their relatives are treated like kings in Israel give Gazans no real impetus to compromise and Hamas, seeing the could lose street credibility if they compromise, is not rushing for a deal. Put Hamas/Gazan prisoners in isolation and twist the emotional vice on their families. To Hamas threat about Shalit being another "Ron Arad". Unlike Lebanon, Gaza WILL be turned into a parking lot if that happens. The only thing keeping you alive is this poor kid in your custody. Day 0+1 minute he is handed over, you're toast.

28. YNET - Why print this? Why give them a platform?

jcarmichael ,   europe   (03.22.09)
OK...than let's accept their morals!! Dont care about the basic standards in the prisons, treat em like the enemy treats israelis..Israel is a sovereign...(i beg you to remark that the as far as im concerned the Palestinian Authority is not a sovereign itself.i meant the real legal value of the word...) but I think the Talio principle wont work in this case...its more difficult . If Israel does so, in Gaza they say: Israel strenghtened the conditions..pressure of the Zionist enemy..may our shahids blessed...
30. handwriting
(03.22.09)
The handwriting on the sign next to the effigy looks exactly like the "grafitti" that the Arabs said IDF soldiers drew in their houses.
