To all cabinet ministers: If he was your son you would give anything to free him - so do just that and give them what they want so that Shalit can have a life again.

this issue is doomed not to happen it will never happen but what else is new the price is high and a shivering hand will not pay as it goes donot ask for somthing from a stingy hand with glue

Seems to me that a concerned mother in Israel would certainly know how to spell the country in which she purports to live. Seems to me further that you just might call the U.K. home, as Israeli mothers rarely, if ever, refer to themselves as "mum." The Brits, on the other hand, do. For the record, note correct spelling of the name of the country which you claim to call home: Israel. Got it? "A" before "E." Try to remember it the next time you impersonate someone you clearly are not.

I sincerely beg he reconsider if not out of principal, for the 10,000's of mostly Jewish lives devastated & destroyed by the murderers who he'll release on his watch, who'll most assuredly devastate & destroy 10,000's more Jewish lives.

Tick tock tick tock. How many times do you have to repeat the same mistakes and expect a different result...This is insane. You release killers so they may kill again. Will Shalit and all the other bleeding hearts get up and visit the family of the future murdered as a result of their selfish demands? No they wont for they have shown their true colors..one of abject selfishness and disconcern for the other Jews living amongst them. Once this kid Shalit is released, send him and his family packing..they dont deserve to live amongst you. They are using you for their own selfish needs. Did anyone tell them that their kid was a soldier and getting killed or taken prisoner is part of the deal? Where are the mothers and fathers of those who will yet be murdered? where are they? or are they so ghettoed out that they want to pretend that it cant happen to them and their loved ones. For this reason alone Israel has shown itself to be a failure, for you are not a free people, rather an enslaved one looking for acceptance.

Israel should pay? Israel knows where he is, they won't go after him.

THE MEDIA JUMPED THE GUN AGAIN!!!!!!! You people who write the news need to just SHUT UP AND STOP REPORTING THINGS THAT ARE NOT IN FACT HAPPENING!!!!! Gilad will get home sooner and we will have far less heart ache if YOU WOULD STOP TRYING TO GET YOURSELVES A NAME BY REPORTING SENSATIONAL FALSE HEADLINES!!!

So this MUM from isREAL is probably Um Fatima of Tower Hamlets (I think its like Stuyvesant in NY)

Bunnie, if the IDF would go into Gaza to free Gilad Shalit, Hamas would kill Shalit. Believe me,if it would be a good & safe idea the IDF would have rescued Gilad a long time ago.Trust me;they have thought about it.
