Does Israel not have capital punishment? If not, they ought to bring it back. That would send the clear message that while Israel values human life, there is also stiff penalty for taking life. Cleaning up their prison would be a bonus.

I was offended to see the sharp contrast in pale and gaunt Gilad Shalit whose shrapnel wound had not been properly treated and those jubilant healthy looking "Palestinian" prisoners.
