No Country for Old Men
Israel
is hard on people. In the summer of 2006 the Hezbollah started a war by killing
six of our soldiers and kidnapping two: Ehud Goldwasser and Eldad Regev.
The Hezbollah offered to release the two hostages in
exchange for the over 9,000 Arab prisoners held in Israeli facilities.
A few days ago they said they would send the bodies of the
hostages for several hundred convicted terrorists now in our prisons. The
debate in Israel
has raged because, although our men deserve a decent Jewish funeral, the
prisoners released are apt to kill many more Jews.
In the past some 70% of those released have returned to Israel
to do us damage. Our troops and our law enforcement officers should not spill
their blood twice on the same miscreants.
