#15 something tells me if my son were to die, God forbid, he wouldn't want to be negotiated for terrorists to be traded back to only have them be able to kill again. Precedent set, and Israeli's seen as weak. Makes me sick. |

#14 I know it's not right but I hope they drop a MOAB right in the middle of the hizbullah welcome back celebration in Lebanon. |

#13 This would only make sense if a secret clause included location and schematics of Iranian nuclear facilities. |

#10 If there's one country that doesn't need a Neville Chamberlain, it's Israel. |

#9 I can't think of the name "Olmert" any more without thinking of the word "Judenrat." |

#8 Is this what is called "negotiations without preconditions"? |

#7 I can not, simply not, understand how Olmert could have allowed this. Or, for that matter, how any of the soldiers/police guarding Kuntar could have refrained from shooting him dead before seeing him go free. Israel is doomed. It doesn't have the courage to survive. This craven cowering by Olmert, supposedly backed by a majority of the country, is absolute proof of the preceding statement. Of course, Olmert's continuance as PM despite his criminality and gutlessness has also demonstrated that proof for some years now. I am saddened beyond words to think that I'll live to see the completion of the Holocaust. |

#6 Israel should swap like-for-like. If the Palestinians send back dead bodies, the Israelis should send them dead bodies. If the people that the Paleos want back aren't dead yet, that can be fixed relatively easily. |

#5 "Woe betide the people who celebrate the release of a beastly man who bludgeoned the skull of a 4-year-old toddler," Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert said in a statement before a private meeting with the families of the soldiers. Well, you're right. You're also the guy who let him out... |

#4 Bad Precedent. Olmert's leadership will be one for the record books. What should we expect when Hezbollah attacks again? |

#3 Too stupid to live. Unfortunately I've come to expect this self destructive behavior from any nation who becomes used to the American security blanket, not least of all American herself. |

#2 They should have flown over the celebration like they were bringing the prisoners, then flung them out of the chopper at a thousand feet up. Right on that cackling bunch of baboons. |
