The Israeli defence minister has signalled that the government might consider releasing a Lebanese prisoner in exchange for the two soldiers who were captured by Hezbollah.
In an interview with Army Radio, Amir Peretz acknowledged Hezbollah's demand that Israel free Samir al-Qantar as part of any deal over the two soldiers seized in a cross-border raid on July 12.
"The question of Qantar remains on the agenda in every incident involving Hezbollah," Peretz said, referring to previous prisoner exchanges with the group.
"The question of Qantar will also now remain on the agenda. We intend to examine the issues as they come up," he added.
In 2004, Hezbollah and Israel exchanged the bodies of three Israeli soldiers captured in 2000 and a kidnapped Israeli businessman for 400 Palestinian and 23 Lebanese and Arab prisoners in a Germany-brokered deal.
A second possible deal involving al-Qantar was discussed at the time. Israel said that it might release him in exchange for information about the fate of Ron Arad, an Israeli airman whose plane was shot down over Lebanon in 1986.
Peretz acknowledged Hezbollah's
demand that al-Qantar be freed
An Israeli court sentenced al-Qantar to 542 years in prison in 1980 for his part in the killings of an Israeli, his daughter and a policeman. He was only 16-years old when he broke into an apartment in the coastal city of Nahariya with three other gunmen and snatched Danny Haran and four-year-old Einat.
Witnesses said the gunmen took the father and daughter to a nearby beach, where al-Qantar shot Haran dead and then smashed the girl's head against a rock with his rifle butt. Haran's wife Smadar smothered their other daughter to death while trying to prevent her from crying out as they hid in a closet.
Two of the gunmen were killed in the attack. A third was released in a prisoner swap with a Palestinian group in 1985

How dare Israel imprison that sick barbarian? Set him and all the Palestinian terrorists free...and then Israel will have peace. Makes a lot of sense.
And when he commits another atrocity, who will be to blame? Israel, of course. Perhaps Bush too - at least according to popular opinion on the moving train.
of course
It has to be Bush's fault. well and Israel.
{/end sarcasm}
The guy clearly has legitimate greivances that he chooses to address by smashing a little girl's head in.
Fucking scum.
Gee, maybe everyone else felt that you two were doing fine. You're giving this one plenty of attention all by yourselves.
that, or there is nothing negative said about america or bush.
That's funny. It seems that two people's attention hasn't stopped others from jumping in on bash Bush, bash Israel and/or bash the US threads
Speaking of bashing Israel, shouldn't you two be criticizing Israel of "appeasing the Islamofacist terrorists, etc., etc." for considering releasing this guy?
If they release him, I'll be the first to say that they are appeasing. I'm already uncomfortable that they are even considering it.
I feel the same way about ceding more land to the Palestinians, as all Israel has received in exchange after ceding Gaza has been more attacks.
How would you view it, by the way? Do you promote freeing this animal?
