re: #469 SanFranciscoZionist

Baskin’s not quite that far gone, but the idea that peace was in our grasp and then THIS happened is pretty far-fetched, which seems to be what he’s suggesting.

He was involved in talking to people about getting Shalit returned, no? Was he a significant player, or does he just like to have coffee with people?

He CLAIMS he was involved in getting Shalit returned. I don’t think anyone else has acknowledged that he had anything to do with it. He is just a private citizen with no authority to negotiate about anything and not a member of any government body.
