The Israelis did a prisoner exchange with Hezbollah; Israel gave 5 prisoners all alive in return for 2 Israeli Soldiers both dead. Senator Obama wants to deal with these barbarians who don't even follow the laws of human decency. The two soldiers had to have been murdered by Hezbollah because they were alive when they were taken. Where is the world out cry over this. Remember when Israel tried to rescue then the world wanted Israel to back-off and use Diplomacy. Diplomacy gave them two bodies for and they gave up 5 live people. I wish Israel had taken the two bodies and then shot the five and said it is an equal trade.
When is the world going to wake up and say this is unacceptable. People either give up your ways or we will let Israel wipe you out. It comes down to the Arab world and the Muslims must decide if they support this or are they going to take action to end this type of behavior. We are in a struggle for our civilization and way of life. We get upset when the US uses rough interrogation to try to protect our country but remain silent when the enemy kidnaps soldiers and executes them and then expects to trade live people for bodies? We are made to feel guilty if we say or do something that they feel is offensive or don't bend over backwards to accommodate their religious beliefs. They will then execute or imprison you if you Carry a Bible in their country.
This is just one more item that tells me that they are in support of the radicals who are using religion to force their beliefs on the rest of the world. Their silence speaks volumes and is implying they support such action.
I have included a link to the News Story and I hope it is not removed too quickly for fear of offending some one.

The point is that the rest of the Arab and Muslim world has not said or done anything to prevent or condem this action. The two soldiers were alive when they were taken and according to the Geneva Convention they should have been treated as POW and not murdered. The world is demanding that we follow the Geneva Convention and treat the Unlawful Enemy Combatants as POW's. A status they are not entitled to under the Geneva Convention. Where is the world out cry over this. It seems that only Jewish or Christians are expected to follow the rules.
Doesn't it bother you that Israel has criminals for years and they are returned alive and healthy, while the Arabs have POW's for a couple of years and they are returned murdered. The world is silent and the Arabs are celebrating. What kind of people are they?

These people are barbaric, they do not value human life like we do. They considered what they did a victory. They must be desperate to call this a victory, they are trying to motivate their followers.
You are right, everything we do is offensive to them, yet they can do whatever they d&mn-well please. We are too worried about being politically correct.
