Red Cross not allowed to visit Gilad Schalit....
This is just inhuman...H
amas rejected Friday an Israeli demand to allow representatives of the International Red Cross to visit kidnapped Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit.Actually, Israel knows exactly where he is.
Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman said Thursday that Israel would not lift its blockade of the Gaza Strip unless Hamas agreed to allow representatives of the Red Cross to visit Shalit.
The deputy chief of Hamas Politburo, Mousa Abu Marzouk, said in a press statement that the group will not allow visitors because that would compromise the secrecy of his hiding place. Abu Marzouk added that if Israel knew of Shalit's whereabouts in the Gaza Strip and could not gain his release, it would bomb the location in order to kill him. This would endanger the lives of Palestinians living in the vicinity, the official said.
