Power for Shalit

Remarkable that even Olmert has come to the end of the road in offering concessions to free Gilad Shalit from captivity in Gaza.

Of course, no-one offers the enemy more than Olmert.

Judea, Samaria, the Golan Heights, Jerusalem … anything you like.

So it’s back to basics.

We either take Gilad back Entebbe –style or do what we should have done 1,000 days ago:

Cut off the power lines to Gaza until Shalit walks free back across the border.

Just like Sharansky walked across the Glienicke Bridge in 1986 as a result of the massive pressure applied on the USSR by Ronald Reagan; America's 40th president and the last one with balls.

Once the plugs are pulled out, the Free World will cry FOUL! and protest this inhuman collective punishment.

Well, the Free World is in no position to make judgments until its own citizens have been held hostage incommunicado for 1,000 days during which all patience has been exhausted.

The Free World is not totally surrounded by enemies. It’s not under daily rocket fire. It’s not under a madman’s explicit threat of annihilation by a nuclear bomb which the free world helped him build.

Hillel said: Judge not thy friend
until thou standest in his place.

When the Free World starts treating Israel like a Free Nation – they’ll find us more than willing to live by their lofty standards.
