Gilad Shalit freed in Israeli-Palestinian prisoner swap

Cheering crowds have greeted Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit as he arrived back in his northern hometown of Mitzpe Hila after five years in captivity in Gaza.

Sgt Shalit was flown by helicopter from an airbase in central Israel after undergoing medical tests.

I praise God this young man was finally reunited with his family Many prayers have been said for his safe return over his long imprisonment by the terrorists.

He was freed after Israel and the Islamist movement Hamas agreed a deal under which more than 1,000 Palestinians would also be released.

Many thousands thronged the streets of Gaza to greet the former prisoners.

There is one thing I do not understand. Why doesn’t Israel just execute those proven to have murdered innocent citizens? Having Israeli taxpayers to foot the bill to support these animals just makes no sense.

Israel freed 477 Palestinians on Tuesday, including people convicted of murder and of planning suicide attacks.

A few well placed bombs would deal with the problem. I’ve no doubt Israel could handle this issue quite efficiently.

Another 550 jailed Palestinians are to be freed next month under the deal.

Sgt Shalit is now home. Screw letting another 550 back on the streets. How about a bit of justice? sigh… Unlike the terrorists, Israelis are people of honor, and will keep their word.

In his first interview, Sgt Shalit told Egyptian TV he missed his friends and family. Looking drawn and pale, he said he hoped the exchange would help bring peace between Israel and the Palestinians.

Sgt Shalit was then transferred to the Kerem Shalom crossing between Egypt and Israel.

He made a phone call to his parents and was later flown to Tel Nof airbase, where the family was reunited.

Initial medical examinations found Sgt Shalit to be in a stable condition.

I pray for this young man’s mental stability. After being held by these animals for 5 years, I can’t imagine that he has not been affected emotionally, and mentally. Physical scars will heal, but the mental and emotional abuse he must have suffered, I’ve no doubt, will have a profound effect on the rest of his life. Continue to keep him in your prayers, that his healing will be whole.

Seeing pictures of the young man shortly after his release, the first thought that entered my mind was the pictures of liberated Jews from the concentration camps.  Granted, thankfully, not quite as bad.  But then, there really is no difference between the Nazis and the Islamic terrorists.

    Yeah, I can imagine he is getting some serious crap.  But what did they want him to do?  That poor kid was held for 5 freakin’ years.  No, he should not have let the murderous thugs go…like I said, he should have had ‘en shot ASAP.  Then, there wouldn’t have been an issue.  But still I stand by what I said…  One is worth more than the whole lot of that trash!

    Open your eyes to the lies our media puts in your head 
    Do your individual research read other international news from other countries and you will be enlightened … I would like to say I had very similar views but … I am a changed American.

    And you are just as ignorant as they come.  I haven’t deleted diddly.  I hadn’t approved your terrorist supporting comments.  Jeeez.  Get a grip.  You aren’t #1 on my list of priorities.  I suggest you learn a bit more of the history of your buddies.
