Looks like we might have an imminent ‘hostage currency’ situation. In 2011, Israel released more than 1,000 Palestinians in exchange for 1 Israeli soldier, Gilad Shalit. A few days ago Hamas were demanding the release of 6,000 Palestinians detained in Israel’s jails for the release of the 150 or so Israeli captives. At the 2011 hostage currency rate 150 Israelis would be equal to 900,000 Palestinians! Judging by the past exchanges, if I were Israel, at this point, I might be liable to take the 6,000 for 150 offer, as comparatively it seems like a good deal.
