Before I respond I will say, I hate both sides. I find it silly they choose to relive the Crusades...

1100 people for one man who was kidnapped (note: kidnapped not captured) 5 miles inside his own border. 1100 dangerous people for the return of one man just manning a guard post.

Poor Mr Shalit, who was simply doing his job has now become a hotpoint for anti zionists to latch onto. He should not be victimized here. US policy is to blame. Protecting Israel from UN sanctions which cripples any credibility we have left on the world stage...

I simply see this as 1100 more bullets for Israel to shoot into Arabs (On the US dime of course, while grandma has to worry about her SSI)

We can do without both sides...seriously I wish we would become Isolationist again.
