Gilad Shalit

an outstanding and deeply thoughtful article in today's Toronto Star by Simon J. Black, a Toronto freelance writer...

Since his capture, I have been unable to avoid the image of Gilad Shalit and the life and history behind this image.

What I do not know is the names and faces of the hundreds of Palestinian children held in Israeli jails.

please read the rest...
