I hope my Liberal Jewish friends and relatives who voted for these “honest brokers” can feel the love now.

OTOH, the Red Cross is actually complaining that they don’t have access to Shalit.

The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) criticized Hamas on Thursday for its continued refusal to allow the organization’s representatives to visit captured IDF soldier Gilad Schalit, as well as its refusal to allow him contact with his family throughout three years of captivity.
