That was five years of torment for this country, where every newscast would end with how many days Shalit had been in captivity. It's like a wound that just never heals."
What a creepy apologist for wanton murder. Given that Shalit was released unharmed and according to Shalit and his (IDF) doctors who said he was not abused or tortured (unlike many Palestinian prisoners) he is really saying that it is all too uncomfortable for Israeli society to not know if their soldier is alive or dead and rather than wait wondering until they know they would rather have them dead so they can indulge in and justify their prejudices and murderous intent towards Palestinians. At worst he was not fed fully but neither are many Palestinians living under siege. It seems he just shared in the privations of the Palestinian captors.
