Gilad Shalit.<\/p>\n<p>Hamas has repeatedly demanded the release of hundreds of terrorist convicts, including Tanzim leader and arch-terrorist Marwan Barghouti, as ransom for Shalit. Barghouti is serving five life sentences for murdering five Israeli citizens and wounding dozens more in various terrorist attacks. <\/p>\n<p>Prime Minister Ehud Olmert appointed a Cabinet committee this week to review the government&#8217;s criteria for freeing the criminals, including Barghouti, who is extremely popular among grassroots Palestinian Authority Arabs.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Blood on their hands&#8221; currently applies to any terrorist who was involved in a fatal attack on Israelis, including the commander who gave the order, whether or not they personally carried out the attack.
