#1 There is 1 Israeli life at stake in this negotiation. If they release 199 hardcore criminals how many Israeli lives will be taken by them in the future?

#2 Other groups have held similar abduction drills recently, following threats to kidnap more soldiers in order to secure the release of their terrorists from Israeli prisons.

They don't even have to keep them alive either. Just kill them and desecrate their bodies. Israel will still pay top dollar in live prisoners.

Olmert has placed a price on the corpse of each and every Israeli.

#3 Its probable that Shalit is dead.

If I were the PM, I'd kill them, ship back the bodies. 199 bodies for 1 body still seems like a generous deal.

#4 I see it as an excuse to blame Israel for Shalit's death, which probably happened some time ago.

Has there been any credible proof of life since he was kidnapped?

#6 Hezbullah's played this particular game featuring already dead Israelis for years. Disgraceful - but everything about Hamas is disgraceful.
