Gilad Shalit was 20 year old soldier when he was captured by Hamas, and has now been held in captivity for a little over 3 years. Recently a video was released (in exchange for several prisoners) that proved that Shalit was in fact alive. However a video showing that he is alive is a far step from “free”. Hamas still has him under lock and key, and is still making obscenely high demands. France is now also working to try and mediate, but Shalit is still in limbo. Until then, while there is certainly intelligence information about the situation in the hands of various international intelligence agencies, they aren’t going to risk the situation by tipping their hands. The details of what hapenned, how he has been treated, and his day to day activities probably won’t come out until (if?) he is released and allowed to tell the story. Until then, this is what you’d call an “incomplete story”. For some reason though, this hasn’t stopped one Israeli reporter from trying to make a buck by publishing the Gilad Shalit story. (Bad translation from google here). Isn’t it a little premature still? While I’m sure the reporter did the best research he could, the story is not yet done being written, and those that really know the facts aren’t speaking (yet). How can you in good conscience publish this?
