Our side is getting two bodies, in return for which you get five of your people back. Indeed, this is a tremendous victory. You get to stage triumphant returns, to the bosoms of their families, of five of your heroes. And we get to bury two of ours.
We get the bodies of two young men (Ehud Goldwasser, Eldad Regev) who were killed for no reason, whose deaths were pointless murders.
You get four criminals and a psychopath.
Lets review, shall we?
On April 22, 1979, Samir Kuntar and some friends infiltrated Israel intending to commit murder. They succeeded.
Samir Kuntar, the psychopath, first shot Danny Haran (28 years old) in the back, then held him under water to make sure he was dead. After which Samir Kuntar smashed four-year old Eynat's head against a rock, and pounded her skull in with the butt of his rifle.
These murders are celebrated as noble acts by members of the Muslim Umma. Samir Kuntar is a hero in Lebanon. And the Lebanese have for three decades demanded the release of this paragon from Israel's jails.
Israel has agreed to swap the bodies of two dead soldiers for four live Hezbollah operatives and an unrepentant child-killer. In a sense, there is an equivalency.
Two dead Israeli soldiers are as valuable to Jews as four violent deviants and an aging maniac are to the Arabs.
Indeed, if you assume that Arabs have much lower standards in comparison to Jews (which you probably must - the Arabs tend to glorify homicide and insane killers, and regularly make a pig's breakfast out of their own affairs), and if you regretfully conclude that their standards come from a much lower level of civilization than anyone else, then yes, I suppose there is an exact equivalency.
Congratulations, oh Arabs - you may welcome back your hero, the brave Samir Kuntar, whose most noble act was smashing the skull of an infant. This tells us what your values are, and informs us precisely about your natures and your ideals.
Truly, you Arabs are an example to the rest of us. We are much impressed.

I am so sick of this!
The bastard laughed when he killed Eynat. I still wonder why they didn't kill him in 1979. Hope he will be eliminated soon.
Thought there was a convention to protect prisoners of war?!
He'll probably be married off to a fertile seventeen year old, so that he may breed much and add another generation of murderers to his tribe.
