What Were They THINKING?

Israel traded live prisoners, among them a "child killer," for some dead bodies. Although I'm sure the families of these men appreciate the return of their loved ones, the Palestinians consider the trade a "great victory." And they're right. I'm sure the "child killer" among the released prisoners will contribute more dead bodies in the future, whereas all Israel can do with their "gain" is to bury them. Now they'll just have to catch him again after he kills some more children. Maybe they can just kill him this time instead of having to feed him for 30 years. I'm sure the Palestinian terrorists are laughing so hard that their sides hurt at the stupidity of the Israelis (their feelings, not mine).What were they THINKING? All this kind of thing accomplishes is more kidnappings of soldiers who are left alone. " 'What we've done now has made kidnapping soldiers the most profitable game in town,' said Israeli security expert Martin Sherman." (My Way)
