| Hamas barred Red Cross from visiting Gilad Shalit |
| 2006-08-06 |
 Hamas did not allow representatives of the Red Cross to visit kidnapped soldier, Gilad Shalit, sources said Saturday. The humanitarian organization had requested last week to see Shalit in order to assess his health condition, and were denied the visit by Hamas. "We will not allow visitors to see the soldier while the families of thousands of jailed Palestinians cannot see their loved ones," Hamas officials said. |

| #8 Sadly, Shalit was probably dead within less than an hour after capture. All that has gone after is the usual terrorist smoke and mirrors. |

| #6 But the Red Cross IS in GITMO Yes, and don't expect any of the critics of Gitmo to acknowledge it or the refusal of terrorist groups to 'play by the rules'. You know of course the Supremes said that regardless of them not playing by the rules, and therefore not covered by the Geneva Convention, they are entitled to GC treatment. Enablers, one and all. |

| #4 Unfortunately I think the poor guy was killed soon after capture. No videos, pictures, nothing has been released since then showing him in the land of the living. I hope he isn't but I'm afraid he is. I think Ham-ass would be hard pressed to cover up the fact that he's dead. |

| #2 At least the ICRC tried, which is more than I expected. How likely is it that he's still alive? |
