ARAB LEAGUE CRITICISES TRUCE-SHALIT LINK

CAIRO, FEBRUARY 18 - Regarding today's decision of Israel's Defence Council to demand the release of corporal Gilad Shalit as a preliminary condition for a truce with Hamas, the secretary-general of the Arab League, Amr Mussa, said that the refusal of a truce by Israel "is part of the Israeli blackmail of not making concessions". Linking the truce to Shalit, according to Mussa "blocks the resolution of many questions". Regarding the inter-Palestinian reconciliation, Mussa said that "the possibilities for reconciliation have improved after the most recent meeting with the head of the political office of Hamas in Damascus", Khaled Meshaal.

Israel gave back many of terrorists to hezbullah for the mutilated bodies of two of their soldiers in 2006. It is about time that they grew some real balls to really demand for Shalit's safe return. I personally think he is dead.
