Over Your Dead Body

Yes, the motivation is religious. (Such solicitude for corpses has been the subject of many lawsuits and the determining factor in how the WTC rubble is treated.) It is the only motivation for Olmert in this exchange. He has taught the terrorists that the best way to free assassins is to kill Jews. One wonders if death would be an acceptable state of being for some Israelis, so long as no one desecrates the cemetery...

Join the Israeli Army! We won't let them keep your corpse...

"Those soldiers were taken alive. The Israel Attorney General said so at the time. Why the hell isn't anyone screaming that that they were killed in captivity? Where is the international outrage. Where are those crybaby thumb suckers that protest Club Gitmo?"

At least they could've implanted a GPS tracking chip in the terrorists, wait a couple weeks and send in an airstrike.

The least they could have done was to shoot the 5 soldiers before exchanging them!(
 
Laure, I sanctioned this item just for the above line.

Bob, if Laure deserves a sanction, then John deserves a Nobel Peace Prize.

Maybe John has hit upon an Israeli secret! I just knew there had to be a rational reason for releasing those guys.
