Did the Israeli news mention the 200 lebanese deads in the swapping process?

Question

I see people here only talking about the two Israeli deaths, what about the 200 lebanese deaths?

Answer 1

Lebanon can kill that many in one its civil wars, like what just happened with terrorists running around civilian neighborhoods with shoulder-launched rockets.  Don't blame the Israelis for defending themselves from that chaotic mess of a country.

Answer 2

Israel mentioned these poor souls over and over, for your information, all received an honorable military burial in Amiad's graveyard for enemy dead on the Israeli Lebanese border.

Over the years The Lebanese government refused to accept their remains.

These are bodies of 199 armed Arabs killed while trying to infiltrate into Israel during the years.

Like it or not I was there for one funeral, so who are you to insinuate differently.

Answer 3

Yep, the Israeli news mentioned the full details of the exchange, as well as the fact that the Lebanese were shamefully celebrating the release of the horrible human Samir Kuntar...how could anyone be proud to have him among them?

Answer 4

so sorry for them.

Answer 5

Not many news sources at all have mentioned that, but yet people go on and on about how Israelis value human life. How did these 200 die, how did they suffer at the hands of Israelis? God bless ALL the dead returned home. The 5 alive can barely make up for those dead. Peace!

Answer 6

Yes of course you couldn't miss it if you watched at all.  As Shay said they turned down the retrieval of those bodies for years, until it had political play.  Great victory my glut.

If they entered Israel to kill sleeping civilians and got caught killed and buried.  They deserve what ever suffering their wounds bring them.  Just as any soldier knows.

Then again you need honor to be a soldier.  They don't have it.
