Free Gilad Rally

A thousand or so people turned out for a rally calling for the release of Gilad Shalit who has been held by Hamas. Pamela has video and more pictures can be found here.

I imagine Boy Assad will cave in to the pressure eventually. Or maybe he already has:

Palestinian terrorist group Hamas may have set up camp in Iran. Khaled Mashaal, chief of Hamas, has left Syria earlier in the week, where he had been based for many years but did not reveal where he was travelling to, the mouthpiece of mullahs daily of Jomhouri Islami reported.

The report also said that Palestinian sources confirmed it.

In April, Iran's mullahs pledged to give the Palestinian Authority 50 million dollars in aid.

Iranian Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki announced the contribution, which will go to the Hamas-led government, during a pro-Palestinian conference in Tehran.

Another Palestinian "leader" has run off. This time it's not Beirut or Tunis, but Iran. I guess he thinks the IDF can't reach him within the borders of Ayatollahville.
