Releasing terrorists who murdered Jooos!, of course, is no big deal. We're used to being killed. But murdering Americans--why...why, that's a crime. How dare those Israelis take advantage of our ignorance of the facts!

See why I had to emigrate, folks. America is simply no longer safe from lunacy. It's in the White House.

What, a single Jew is worth 1000 Arabs?....of course Obama criticizes it.......

But then 1000 Arabs have 1000 bio chips which radiate as drone targets...no wonder Obama is all wee wee’d up.

[Shadow44]

Whether or not you believe the decision was the right one, I find it admirable that the Israeli government is that concerned with the lives of its own citizens.

[Jeff Head]

Israel's deal to release 1,027 security prisoners, some 450 convicted on terrorism charges, for Shalit was made with the Hamas terror organization in Gaza and not Palestinian Authority officials in Ramallah. Hamas encouraged those who were released to go back to terrorist acts.

This says all that needs to be said about this "deal" IMHO. IMHO, tt was foolish an will cost Israel many more lives before all is said and done.

All due respect and thanksgiving for the one soldier's safe return...but Israel opened up a can of worms by dealing in this fashion with terrorists and can expect Hamas and others to routinely capture at least one Israeli soldier when they commit there terroristic mayhem for use as a negotiating pawn in the future. 1000 for one.

450 of them convicted on terrorism charges, some for out and out murder, and encourgaed immediately upon return by Hamas to take up the Jihad Sword again.

No more Foreign Aid. If the Israelis have turned into surrender monkeys, then is there anyone else worth spending a dime on ?

[hattend]

Obama first praises the deal - He has his cake

Now he criticizes the deal after the terrorists are released - He eats his cake too.

Obama loves that the terrorists are free to harm Israel again, but he doesn’t want his joy to hurt him in the polls.

[fortheDeclaration]

Yes, but allowing those murderers free was an act of moral cowardice.

More Jews will die because of it.

Perhaps I'm a cynic, but I won't be surprised if one of these releases returns to terror. And if history is a guide, the justice system will be a bit more swift. Should I be correct, I wonder if Obama-Hillary will be saying "about time", or be whining about disproportionate responses.

[a fool in paradise]

This didn’t poll well with the Jewish voters they’d sampled and now have to backpedal.

The regime is pro-Islamist and probably helped negotiate it.

[Amerisrael]

MSM reporting “Palestinians” or “Palestinian fighters” released.

Not “Islamic terrorists” or even “Hamas terrorists”.

MSM reporters including those of Fox only refer to Hamas as “militants”, not terrorists.

Pathetic, absolutely pathetic.

[Karliner]

Previously, US secretary of state Hillary Clinton also praised Israel for negotiating with terrorists to secure Shalit's release.

What a bunch of flip flopping hypocrites. I wish the US government( not for, "We The People")would start LISTENING to us, and get off Israel's back! They're lame a__ed dry humping the State of Israel is sickening then they wizz on them afterward. Does anyone yet know Israel is damned if they do and damned if they don't. Demonizing Israel is more in vogue than the 1930's because it's now international. Gads this is sickening.
