The Trauma of the Shalit Exchange Mark Silverberg

http://www.familysecuritymatters.org/publications/id.10600/pub_detail.asp Much has been written of the Israeli commitment not to leave a wounded soldier in the field, and of late, the wisdom of trading a thousand terrorists for a single Israeli hostage. The release of Gilad Shalit after five years in Hamas captivity, however, is more than a moral issue for Israelis. It is […]

ANDREW KLAVAN ON MITT ROMNEY…HE AIN’T “THE GUY”

http://pajamasmedia.com/andrewklavan/2011/10/17/mitt-romney-versus-the-end-of-western-civilization/ To do that, we need a man not just of policies but of vision, not just of proposals but of high ideals. A mere Romney might — might — take us back from the brink to which Obama has sped us, but that would only delay the fatal catastrophe. Worse, it would perforce recreate the exact […]

CLARENCE THOMAS: THE VERY MODEL OF A CONSERVATIVE JUSTICE: MARK FITZGIBBONS

http://www.americanthinker.com/printpage/?url=http://www.americanthinker.com/articles/../2011/10/clarence_thomas_constitution.html About ten years ago I told some friends and colleagues that the judicial opinions of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, often written in dissent of majority opinions eviscerating freedoms, would be widely cited 40 years hence.  And, if establishment Republicans were in power, I predicted that the Thomas opinions would be cited even by […]

DANIEL GREENFIELD: REVOLVING DOOR TERRORISM *****

http://sultanknish.blogspot.com/

The Shalit deal will release some of the worst murderers in Israeli history, including those responsible for the Dolphinarium disco bombing which killed over a dozen teenagers, the Sbarro pizza bombing which wiped out an entire family, the lynchers of two Israeli reservists and the Passover Massacre at the Park Hotel.
This is Israel’s worst military defeat in its modern history and it is being celebrated with grins and cheers, not just in Gaza but in Tel Aviv.

What the deal really means is revolving door terrorism is back. Kill Israelis and you stay in prison only long enough for other terrorists to kidnap an Israeli and win their release. Those 25 year sentences mean nothing. A life sentence doesn’t mean life, it means however many years it takes the Israeli government to give in to blackmail.
