[quote=Anonymous]Here's a blurb from an article in yesterday's Washington post about Israeli prisoner swaps by Israeli peace activist Gershon Baskin. How much we differ from Israel about our POWs. Indeed, all the information hasn't come out yet about Bergdahl so I will reserve my opinion about him until I read the FACTS. "In an interview, Baskin noted that Israelis have had a long history with prisoner swaps and that although they are often controversial, debated and condemned, the society — and, eventually, the political leadership — broadly supports them. “In Israel, there is no draft. It is a people’s army. The whole society is the army. My father, myself, my brothers, my sons. We all served in the army. We belong to the army, and the army belongs to us. There is no separation,” Baskin said.“And so we have an unwritten covenant: We don’t leave anyone behind.”[/quote]
