Rumor of the past few hours is that after heavy katyusha and mortar fire up along the Northern border, 2 more soldiers have been kidnapped by Hizbullah.
So here we are having a problem in Gaza... Hizbullah has to get involved and start trouble up North... and the rest of the world looks on and says nu nu nu Israel for being aggressive.
What are we meant to do? What would you do if it was your child kidnapped and held for ransom? are they being fare to the kidnapped soldiers? If they are wounded - are they getting medical attention? Would the same be said of any Palestinian captured by Israeli's?
I don't have any answers - I am just frustrated and confused because I truly believe there must be a peaceful solution. But how can you make peace when there are people on both sides who are not prepared to compromise.
Why don't the majority of Palestinians realize that Israel is willing on the whole to compromise, surely a status-quo of relative peace and non-violence would bring about the release in time of the Palestinians who are being held in Israeli prisons. Surely the answer is not more terrorism, violence and war.
Let's pray for a safe return for all the soldiers and all Palestinians prisoners.
