In 8 months also means groundbreaking for new settlements.

not be a thousand murderers released to kill thousands of Jews. There is a solution to returning Shallit and it includes pressure on gaza or a military operation but not trading the future deaths of Jews for one captive. And, Mitchel is just as thick headed as "president" o-BUM-a, they couldn't understand the difficulties of the peace process if you spelled it out in BIG letters in third grade English.

Hamas points the finger of "blame" to Israel and to the German negotiator.They blame everyone except themselves. Neal the Hasmonean

Hamas wont release terror symbols too. The equaion is keep our terror symbols and we will keep yours...

Look, my dear friend, Bibi. Let the names of the people you hold for terrorism be published. For each time the holders of Shalit squawk, take one or two of the names off the list. AND, let them know that for each delay, names will be taken off from the possible releases. Next time, at the peril of stirring the pot, soldiers will be more careful, and will be soldiers even to death.

First we had a tough talking Bibi saying no way will we accept Hamas demands of 100+ terrorists. Barak was giving lectures at universities about how sometime we can't always bring our boys home if its going to damage the country as a whole. The next thing you know Bibi has accepted just about all the demands short of a few he doesn't want to release. He then said there is no way he would release Bargouti and exactly 1 week later Bargouti rejects the offer than has been made to him by Bibi of release if he agrees to go into exile. He also seems pretty confident he is about to be given his get out of jail free card and the last people I have any faith in statements from is Bibi & Barak they promise one thing one day and reverse on it the next. So now lets see Bibi deliver on that promise or is it going to be another one of his famous empty threats?
