Saudi Royal Family Member Offers $900,000 Bounty To Capture An Israeli Soldier.
In the wake of Israel agreeing to release 1000 people being held or convicted for terrorism against their state it seems they have managed to embolden the terrorists in order to secure the release of Sgt. Gilad Schalit.
What started as a $100,000 offer by Saudi Cleric Sheik Awadh al-Qarani for the capture of any Israeli Soldier to be traded for Palestinian or other Arab Israeli Detainees has now been upped another $900,000 by Prince Khaled bin Talal.
“I tell Sheik al-Qarani that I support you and I will pay $900,000 to make it one million dollars to capture an Israeli soldier to release other prisoners,” said a voice identified as Prince Khaled, who holds no official position in the government.
See what happens when you bargain with terrorists? Of course I was under the impression that everyone knew better already, everyone but the Israeli government apparently…
Meanwhile in Israel two extremist groups have offered $100,000 bounties to be paid to anyone who kills any one of the Arabs being released who has killed an Israeli citizen.
and so the insanity continues on and on and on with no end in sight and no glimpse of a tunnel much less the light at the end of it…sigh. :(
