1. Bibi! Impose total blackout on all Hamas prisoners now!
Brian Cohen Judean P ,   Judean Peoples Front   (04.13.11)
It's time to play by Hamas rules. Bibi should immediately take the initiative and match the conditions that Hamas imposes on Gilad Shalit: -solitary confinement 24/7 -no visitors -no communications Give them 3 meals a day and a bucket in the corner. Hamas continues to spit in the face of international humanitarian law, and the world continues to bless Hamas. Shame on HRW, Amnesty, Doctors without Borders, B'Tselem, and all the other phony groups who pretend that they are "human rights" groups. They aren't. They are simply anti-Israel lobbying groups in the pockets of the Arabs. It's time to release Shalit by turning up the heat on the criminals who are holding him.
2. Hamas there is only hate in your heart !
samah ,   amikay   (04.13.11)
the world is begining to see thru your propaganda and ploys....do your self a favor turn Shalit lose ... it would be a step in the right direction !
3. Here's the deal: Release Schalit or
Robert Haymond ,   Israel/Canada   (04.13.11)
we will kidnap and assassinate your leaders, keep all families from visiting Hamas prisoners, keep them from all educational, media and television outlets and keep them from congregating with each other. In addition, we will prevent any electricity or power of any kind from getting through to Gaza and, little by little, obstruct all food deliveries. Now, would that bring Schalit back?
4. Ready for Palestinian state?
Yakov ,   Tel Aviv   (04.13.11)
Who comes up with this rubbish? Statehood: Run by terrorist's, kidnappers and corrupt politicians? Exactly, what kind of "State" would one expect to produce, with such a formula? Gilad Shalit was kidnapped, and has been held without any premise of decency, legitimacy or justice. How is it, that the world is in such a rush to approve statehood for such people? Do we need another Iraq, Iran, Somalia, Syria or Lebanon?
5. barghouti for shalit
yoni ,   tel aviv   (04.13.11)
How about paying the price i say we return barghoutis head in return for shalit. If that is not enough we can offer Mashaal's head next. We are much stronger than them and we have to scare the crap out of them so they will not hold captive our children
6. no price... the red cross is not anyones negotiator...
eporue ,   europe   (04.13.11)
...when they demand to see the hostage, or at least to have prove that he is ok, then there is no price to pay... you have to do that, mashal, without anything in return. the red cross works in humanitarian matters, and not political ones... the red cross is asking, not israel. send the tape and go into negotiations or not...
7. Are they the lowest form of scum on the planet or what?
Talula ,   Israel   (04.13.11)
What a filthy dirty bunch of demented sickos they REALLY are.
8. video-shmideo
sue ,   jerusalem   (04.13.11)
a video does not prove he is alive. a red cross worker should be able to SEE him as proof he is alive.
9. That pic of Pretty Boy Mashaal...
Sammy ,   Newcastle   (04.13.11)
Is the epitomy of bad taste...for Palestinians A complete walking disasater hes simply a self seeking mouthpiece of Ahmadinejad with nothing to offer Gazans but blood and hopelessness whilst he ammases vast wealth and lives a life of luxury abroad
10. Insanity
Chris ,   Naptown, USA   (04.13.11)
19 soldiers for a video?!? This is insanity... I feel for Gilad Shalit and his family.... but releasing people for videos is not reasonable. This is why you can't negotiate with terrorists! Wake up Israel! They would kill Gilad in a heartbeat if he weren't more valuable alive.. if this strategy works they will use it again and again! just like the suicide bombers til the wall, just like the rockets until iron dome is set up all over Israel... I want him set free, but it seems the only reasonable way to free him is going to be to crush Hamas... it's not reasonable to give their soldiers courage by releasing them for mere videos... I would take the list of people Hamas wants released... every person on that list should be taken to similar circumstances as Gilad... no contact... the only way to know they're alive is if they exchange videos for videos... and then do the same thing every time they attempt to cheat the system, releasing murderers for the hope to see your brother's still alive...
11. IDF needs to
Shalom ,   Ashdod, Israel   (04.13.11)
kill this bastard Meshaal very soon
12. NO
Palestinian ,   Palestine   (04.13.11)
just get the hell out of Palestine and give people back their lives and land .Burglars
13. #12. thats right get the hell out of OUR land.
a Jew   (04.13.11)
14. Hamas & Shalit
Bruria   (04.13.11)
The Red Cross needs to demand a face to face with Shalit. Any pictures, videos, etc. should only be shown to the parents. As for Price? Tell Hamas they will live for one more day. Then star treating their murderous prisoners like Shalit is being treated. They are murderous savages and regardless of what Israel does, we will be demonized. So, Go for the Gusto and give the Hamas and the PA a clear message--Game Over--we won't play anymore
15. Exchange
Jacob Erickson ,   Holon, Israel   (04.13.11)
They can have a ceasefire in exchange for the video
16. A thought ...
NilsG ,   Helsingborg, Sweden   (04.13.11)
In moments like this, I fervently hope that Israel will not lower itself to the level of its adversaries.
17. Israel's fault
Ellen ,   Netanya/NYC   (04.13.11)
Hamas prisoners are treated like little kings--visits, cellphones, special food, llbraries and college degrees. If Hamas demands prisoner releases for a video of Schalit it is Israel's fault. Israel has taught Hamas that she will hand over large numbers of prisoners for rights that Israel gives its' own prisoners. Israel has shown time and time again that it can be S*** on and spat at and Israel will only turn around and smile and ask for more. It is time to say NO, it is time to give what it is given. It is time to stop being the fool in the middle East neighborhood and adopt the same hardline as is adopted towards us. I agree with the first TB!
18. Hamas will never return Gilad alive
Kyle ,   Southpark, CO, USA   (04.13.11)
Why should they, when they know they can get results for just "hinting" that they will make a new video.
19. Keep The Tape
Brazen   (04.13.11)
and SEND Gilad Home To His Family and Country. Chales . Yella
