    Israeli leader warns freed Palestinian militants

    TEL NOF AIR BASE, Israel (AP) — Israel's prime minister has warned the Palestinian militants freed in a prisoner swap that they will be punished if they return to violence.

    Netanyahu issued the warning after greeting the lone Israeli soldier freed in the swap, in which Israel is releasing more than 1,000 prisoners. Some 300 of them had been serving life sentences for deadly attacks on Israelis.

    Netanyahu said he understood the pain of Israeli families who have lost relatives in Palestinian violence.

    He said, "We will continue to fight terror and every released terrorist who returns to terror will be held accountable."

    THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE. Check back soon for further information. AP's earlier story is below.

    TEL NOF AIR BASE, Israel (AP) — Freed Israeli soldier Gilad Schalit has arrived at an air base in central Israel for an eagerly awaited reunion with his family.

    Schalit landed at Tel Nof air base on board a military helicopter.

    His parents, Noam and Aviva, have led an emotional campaign to win their son's release for the past five years. They have led nationwide marches and set up a protest tent outside the official residence of the prime minister.

    Earlier Tuesday, Hamas militants in Gaza freed Schalit in a swap for more than 1,000 Palestinian prisoners.

    Ahead of the reunion, Schalit switched out of civilian clothes given to him by Hamas and into an Israeli military uniform.

      "Punished"? The only punishment those people understand is death. Give it to them.

      How do you punish someone with a bomb strapped to their body? A warning will be all these people need.

      This is only for media purposes. do you think terrorists who are ready die will care about such threat. the Israeli prison was probably better than Gaza .
    • goodchas  •  7 mths ago
      It just goes to show you the value they put on life, they thought they were getting a deal. But what they told the rest of the world is that 1 Israeli life is worth a 1000 palestinians.
    • Reflections  •  7 mths ago
      The ratio of one freed Israel for 1,000 Arabs is very reflective of the different cultural values of human worth........
      • Apartheid-Israel 7 mths ago
        or rather just how many people Israel has kidnapped compared to Palestine, and therefore which is the outlaw state.

      I feel sorry for you Palestinians, I really do! you will never change and you just showed the world how much of a low life you are, how much you value life. One person to over 1000!!! its a joke. The world now knows how much we value our peoples lives. Read all the comments, great ideas, drop the "big one" on you, that would be the day. Look at the way we treat your prisoners, they look healthy, look at the way you treat just one guy, he could hardly talk. Low life, third world, backward thinking Muslims. You give a bad name to all the other good muslims out there. Peace with you? hell is better. The Israeli soldier said, "I hope this will one day bring peace". Palestinains, learn from this Modern thinking soldier who was captured and abuse for 5 years and still saying “I hope this will bring peace”

      Wow....Hamas thinks they got over on Israel. The whole world just viewed how the Jewish nation loves it's own. Hamas will pay a heavy price.

      Hey, Palastine, nice job there confirming that you need to scrape together 1,000 of you to equal one person from the human race. I thank you for confirming what the rest of the world already knew.

      People are tired of the muslim and pally terrorism, kidnapping and overall murder and killings. Let's end this charade once and for all... bomb Gaza City like the allies did in WWII to Dresden and bring the #$%$ to their knees! Then bomb Damascus, Cairo, Islamabad, Tehran and finally... Mecca... the real hotbed of the jihad. This is the first time I have called for this but #$%$.. it's only war, eh? Enough is enough!

    • RobertM1000  •  7 mths ago
      They will return to what they know best, killing innocents. Time for Israel to think about the "option".
    • Randy  •  7 mths ago
      for these "freed" Palestinians, if they step out of line again I suggest a bullet rather than recapture.

      It is a great day for the Jews in Israel and all over the world when Gilad lives were saved from the savage Mozlem brother terrorists that held him in isolated captivity for more than five years with no visitation of Red Cross or any human being. Israel reduced the danger of the 1000 release terrorists that killed more than 600 Jews and sentenced to many life sentences that were cut short for saving Gilad life that were in danger in the hands of the Jihadists that kill Jews on a regular basis based on the religion Mitzvahs. Many of the released terrorists will be exiled to other countries and become international Hamas terrorists that put in danger the lives of many innocent people and children. Israel will find the released terrorists and kill them anywhere if they continue in their Jihadist murder spree.

      The Israelis payed a high price for one of their own. That price will be paid for years to come. I hope they thought this through, they will have to be prepared to take the battle to Hamas if anyone steps out of line. Israel should consider purchasing drones, hellfire missiles and bulldozers.
    • Dee  •  7 mths ago
      Yo Ben, taking a play out of the NO-Bama playbook of a "stern warning" is going to work as well as it has for our idiotic US President. As soon as Israel is hit again (thinking 20 to 30 minutes max) strike back and level entire city blocks within that terrorist sandbox. It is time to teach some very, very good lessons to these terrorists.
    • JackE  •  7 mths ago
      This Israeli soldier is in for some serious back pay!
    • Hounddoggin  •  7 mths ago
      I would have told them there would be a shoot on sight order given if they ever did anything out of line again.
    • Butch and Angel  •  7 mths ago
      Just remember, If you involve yourself in ANYMORE terrotist activities, That 1/2 lb of C-4 we SHOVED up your stinking ARSE will EXPLODE !!!!! SHALOM !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
