#1 So much for "thank you". Don't know what the israelis were thinking - trading 20 terrorists for a piece of tape.

#2 What's sad is that, despite all the venting and (purposelly engineered) hype about Israel "being above International Law, committing war crimes, being unspeakably brutal against the Indigenous Noble Savages, etc, etc....", from both ends of the spectrum (got that from moonbats & wingnusts), the israeli could find a creative response to this... madness (IE kidnapping and organized terror as a way of State policy and international relations) that characterizes the arab/muslim collective mindset.

Really, it won't happen unless there is a global "OH SH8T!!!!!" moment and then all bets are off but... what would have happened should the israeli have kidnapped back some paleos hotshots, and maybe scores and scores of cogs? You know, snuffed a few and buried them w/o head or with bacon in th e mouth and then mailed the vids or aired that on paleos teevee... just to show they are serious and that any kidnapped soldier had better be handed back soon in excellent health, or the muslim hostages will get the same treatment, and this would be just the beginning.

I know, this is pure fantasy, but I wonder if the arabs would have put up with so much crap over the years, had they been given the SAME treatment back. You know, like, "What would Uncle Stalin Do?". Would the paleos keep with that, faced with the ACTUAL certainty the israeli would give them back the syrian (see hama) or jordanian (see black september) treatment? No, they wouldn't.

Too bad we live in bizarro world.

#3 Too bad we live in a bizzaro world where the criminal complicity of the U.N. goes unchallenged.
