The family of Danny Harran forcefully spoke out against the "prisoner" exchange that would exchange the barbaric murderer Kuntar for two dead Israeli soldiers.
The victim's brother declared:
"This is ridiculous. We didn't think it was right to weigh in on the decision until now, because it didn’t feel right, but when (my mother) saw it was going to happen she said we have to do something."
I was very surprised and disappointed in Isreal when Kuntar was released. What were they thinking? To the Islamo fascists, this is a sign of weakness. I would want my loved one's remains back too, but that was too high a price to pay, and Israel will be very sorry they did such a dumb thing. An insane man is now free to rejoin his brothers in hate.
Again, what were they thinking?

It's a shame that a government has dto give into terrorism. Jewish bodies are holy. These boys sacrificed their lives so that others may live. Now we are giving in and having their bodies returned for murderes who will once again be free to slaughter innocent victims. I don't undrestand how we can give in so easily. I agree with the Haran family, even if it regretfully is painful for the families of the fallen soldiers. I'm sure they do not want blood on their concience because terrorists were freed to exchange for the kedoshim who made heroic sacrifices.

Had Isreal been in existance in the mid 30's my only first cousins would be alive today.I fear for Isreal if Ohlmert is the P.M.

I must agree that trading a live murderous animal for two dead bodies is not ' kosher '.
Israel needs to impose the death penalty for terrorists.

I DISAGREETOTALLY WITH THE GOVERNMENT TO RELEASE THAT MURDERER KUNTAR WITH BLOOD IN HIS HANDS. THE 2 POOR SOLDIERS WERE KILLED BY THE HEZBOLLAH, SO WHAT SHOULD OLMERT RELEASE THIS CRIMINAL FROM JAIL?

As sad as the situation is with 'kidnapped Soldiers', i agree with the Harran family. It is "insane" to negotiate with "Terrorists". The price of FREEDOM seems to be always signed with"blood", but you know - Tyranny sheds 'more' blood. I say " Israel, make the Islamofacists PAY BIGTIME!

Absolutely right. Samir Kuntar desrves the seath penalty, not freedom to kill again.
Tis decision puts Jews be they Israelis, Soldiiers or cicilians, or in the Diaspora at risk by providing major encouragement to morekidnappings, with no need to keep the person alive..
