No prisoner swap: Israel
Israeli Interior Minister Roni Bar-On on Friday ruled out any negotiations with Hamas with a view to engineering a Palestinian prisoner swap in exchange for an abducted Israeli soldier. I have spoken to PM Olmert and our position remains unchanged: we refuse to negotiate with Hamas and release prisoners, Bar-On told an Israel television. Israeli Public Security Minister Avi Dichter earlier indicated Israel was prepared to release prisoners against soldiers release.
