Hamas: Mastermind of Shalit's abduction among 4 killed in Gaza
2006-10-18
One of the masterminds behind the abduction of Israel Defense Forces soldier Gilad Shalit was among four militants killed by IDF troops in the Gaza Strip on Wedmesday, Hamas sources told the Palestinian news agency Ramatan.

Palestinian witnesses said troops killed at least four militants in separate incidents in the Gaza Strip before dawn Wednesday. IDF sources confirmed the deaths of two militants in southern Gaza. The army pushed further into the southern Strip along the Philadelphi Route on Tuesday for the first time since since the disengagement over a year ago. IDF sources said Wednesday that the army has plans to expand the operation. An IDF spokesman confirmed that troops killed two men as they approached army positions in Rafah, on Gaza's border with Egypt, an IDF spokesman said.

#4  After the Lebanon fiasco, it appears that consequences are a mixed bag at best. But yes, kidnapping Shalit should have consequences and at least they got the scumbag.

#2  Read: We got one of yours, you got one of ours. We have to kill 3 more Israelis to make things even.

Does soldier Shalit have even the slimmest prayer of getting out alive now (if he ever did)?

May God keep you safe, Mr. Shalit.

#1  One can only hope that Shalit's family will take a measure of consolation in this. Good hunting, IDF!
