Amira,
I will go one step further and say the committee efforts are not only in bad taste but an inapprpriate use of the Holocaust as Gilad is no victim but a perpetrator of his government`s injustice against the Palestinian people. .
In addition, you are right to point out the double standard of the com- mittee` seeking the release of Gilad when thousands of Palestinian sons remain imprisoned in Israel`s detention centres and many more are are imprisoned in their homes & villages and behind checkpoints and an evil wall
Just where is the committee` s moral conscience on all of this? Perhaps more directly --does it have any? It seems so lacking in reality like a schizophrenic disorder. Dutch
P.S. I am enclosing the URLs to highlight the whole national imperative I see missing in Israel and it turns people away from Israel
