Israel: Opening Gaza Crossings Linked to Progress on Freeing Kidnapped Soldier
[Jerusalem Post] Herb Keinon - Israel's security cabinet decided on Wednesday that any opening of crossings into Gaza would be linked to progress in the case of kidnapped soldier Gilad Shalit. Israel wants the Red Cross to be granted access to Shalit or to get some sign of life from him. Defense officials continue to oppose bringing concrete and steel into Gaza, arguing that it would be used to build arms smuggling tunnels and restore Hamas' rocket-building capacity.
