To free or not to free?



Cardboard cut-outs of captured Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit stand outside Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office in Jerusalem December 21, 2009, during a protest calling for Shalit's release.

Our hearts say "pay the terrible price and free an innocent Jew"; our minds - and the Talmud - warn us that capitulating to evil tends to strengthen it.

What - oh what - is the right thing to do?
