Hamas posts 'Shalit photos'

[bemildred]

Terror group publishes image of 'Shalit at old age' to mark five years since IDF soldier's abduction; meanwhile, French President Sarkozy sends personal letter, says Gilad's captivity must end

The pictures show a Palestinian playing Shalit's role sitting at his "cell" with photos of Israeli navigator Ron Arad, who has been missing in action for some 25 years, hanging on the walls.

While the five-year anniversary of Shalit's abduction was not officially marked in Israel, many Israelis refused to forget the occasion. Some 600 people gathered near the Kerem Shalom crossing, a few kilometers from the Shalit kidnapping site, urging the government to secure a prisoner swap for the captive.

"It's clear to us that the prime minister, through his refusal to compromise, gambles on and endangers the life of my grandson every day," the letter read.
