If the Arabs thought 1027 Arabs to one Israeli was a racist ratio they could have released Shalit for one or two Arabs.

What is surprising the fact that this Communist newspaper still finds enough money to be published. Did anyone checked their source of finance??? Saudis?? Iran?? Russia?? All of the above???
What a repulsive bunch of self-hating Jews.

this was just bad website management. the caption and photo were just copied from an early one, from an op-ed making that (stupid) point. apparently when they reused the photo for an article they forgot to change hte caption, til they noticed.
