#2 One of the two Israeli reservists held by Hizbullah for more than a year has died

And when we say 'died', we mean 'murdered'.

#3 The frecnh hostages in lebanon during the 80's were held up in dire conditions (interestingly, often in mosque's basements or cellars IIRC), one of them dying painfully of cancer without any medication, including painkillers. The world pays attention to the Club Gitmo, the "gulag of our time", but I shudder to think how Gilad Shalit (who's a french bi-national, by the way) or those two soldiers are held by those savages. If that man is dead, I'm sorry for him, but SteveS is right, he didn't "die", he was murdered, and killed by ill conditions and mistreatment.
