      New Development Regarding Gilad Shalit


      The Lebanese paper El-Mustakabal reported Monday that discussions to free Gilad Shalit will resume soon in Egypt. According to the report, Israel presented to Hamas a list of 220 terrorists in exchange for Shalit's release.  The 220 terrorists were out of a list of 450 that Hamas had demanded.

      Reportedly Hamas was not entirely happy with Israel’s response.  However, Egypt has applied pressure on Hamas to return to the negotiating table.
