Shalit may be alive, but only as long as the media keeps praising Hamas for its "humane" treatment of him. Still, it was Olmert's decision to write them off when they could have been rescued, and until the Israeli people tosses him out of office, who can blame the IDF for protecting their men the only way Olmert will allow them?

Shalit, or any of the others, are sitll alive? Frankly, I doubt it. The Arabs and Persians scent weakness, and are moving in for the kill. The longer Israel waits before striking at Hamas and then at Hezbollah the bigger, bloodier and more intensive the war is likely to be. Maybe after Hamas is cleared out of Gaza Abbas, his consiglieri, and all those Palestinian Arabs so hot for war with Israel finally will be motivated to actually consider and accept the "two-state solution".

Why should the IDF stand by the civilians of Israel? No, it hasn't come to the point where the IDF closes up shop and leaves their fellow Israelis to the tender mercies of the Palestinians. This was a warning that it could, though. If Olmert doesn't step aside (or, preferably, step down) and let the IDF do what needs to be done to bring its kidnapped soldiers home, the IDF's declining morale will continue to lead to reactions like this.

Several years ago I did three weeks of Sar-El service there. I would strongly urge those who want to visit Israel and see yet another aspect of life there to consider Sar-El.
