We Mark 4 years of Gilad Shalit’s captivity in Gaza with Hamas Terrorists June 24, 2010


Gilad Shalit 1

It is time to release our kidnapped Son and soldier Gilad Shalit. He has not been allowed any visits from the Red Cross or any other international organization in 4 years of captivity. All of this is contrary to the Geneva Accords. But, after all, he is a Jew and an Israeli therefore the rest of the world apparently doesn’t give a damn. But WE DO! But there is more..

This Friday marks the fourth anniversary of Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit’s kidnapping and incarceration by Hamas in Gaza. Israel has, during this period, allowed tonnes of humanitarian aid to enter Gaza and has now relaxed restrictions on the transfer of goods. Shalit has not even been allowed a visit by the Red Cross.

Gilad Shalit’s welfare is a central part of the story surrounding Israel’s policies towards the Hamas controlled Gaza Strip. Yet, in the media frenzy following the recent flotilla incident and the subsequent international pressure on Israel to reassess its Gaza policies, the fate of Shalit has, to a large extent, been overlooked by the mainstream media.

I make a lot of comments critical of Israel so I'd like to balance it out a little...

Release Gilad. He looks like a decent kid. An unconditional release by Hamas (or whoever the hell is holding him) would go a long way to showing some good faith.
