Eldad Regev and Ehud Goldwasser are dead.

The two Israeli soldiers were peacefully patrolling the Lebanon border on July 12, 2006, when they were kidnapped by Hezbollah, which sparked the 2006 Israel-Lebanon conflict. Israel offered Hezbollah many peaceful oppurtunities, but the Iranian backed organization flexed its muscles and Israel was forced to retaliate.

It is not known when Hezbollah murdered Eldad Regev and Ehud Goldwasser, but there bodies were returned to Israel today in a prison exchange. The fate of the two teenagers was not known until the bodies were returned.

The fighting began at around 8 AM when Hezbollah launched a barrage of Katyusha rockets and mortars on Israeli towns and military positions along the Lebanese border, apparently as a diversion A force then attacked two armored IDF Humvees patrolling near the Israeli village of Zar'it with anti-tank rockets, killing three soldiers and capturing the two others, and then retreating into Lebanon near the town of Ayta al-Sha`b.

An Israeli Merkava Mk. II tank was destroyed by a 200–300 kg improvised explosive device while attempting to pursue the soldiers into Lebanon, killing all four crewmembers. An eighth soldier was killed while attempting to retrieve their bodies.

On Wednesday July 16 2008, Hezbollah transferred the coffins of Captured Israeli Soldiers, Ehud Goldwasser and Eldad Regev, in exchange for Lebanese militant and convicted murder Samir Kuntar and three other Hezbollah members captured by Israel during the 2006 Lebanon War.

I only wish Israel killed those fucking pussies in Hezbollah who use children and women as human shields.

Gilad Shalit, a French citizen turned Israeli soldier, who was kidnapped by Hamas at an Israeli army post on the Israeli side of the southern Gaza Strip border on June 25, 2006, is still being held captive.
