Israeli MP sees Shalit deal with Hamas in weeks
2009-12-06
[Al Arabiya Latest] A deal to exchange hundreds of Palestinian prisoners for captured Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit could go ahead within two weeks, an Israeli MP said on Saturday.

In a rare public comment on the negotiations, which both Israel and the Palestinian Islamist group Hamas have kept under tight wraps, MP Daniel Ben Simon said an agreement was imminent.

The deal could go ahead in the next "week or two," he told a cultural event in the southern city of Beersheba.

#3  I think the Israelis are damn fools to go for this trade UNLESS they innoculate all releasees with either a tracking chip, or AIDS, or both.

#1  They should have made this deal BEFORE the one with Hezb'shaitan. Once you trade so much for dead bodies, the price rises for an actual live prisoner.
