It's been two years

Two years ago yesterday the terrorist group known as Hamas kidnapped Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit, and he has never been seen since: http://www.mfa.gov.il/MFA/About+the+Ministry/Behind+the+Headlines/Behind%20the%20Headlines-%20Six%20months%20in%20terrorist%20captivity%2011-Jan-2007. We are also just a few weeks shy of the two-year anniversary of the kidnapping of Ehud Goldwasser and Eldad Regev by Hezbollah (that inauspicious anniversary will take place on July 12). Again, as is the case with Shalit, they have not been seen since.

I wonder, would Americans put up with it if American soldiers were kidnappened by Mexican or Canadian terrorists? Would anyone even think of asking the U.S. to "exercise restraint"? Somehow, I doubt it...............
