Campaign for Gilad Shalit
Tell the Egyptians: Help Free Gilad Now!
Add your voice to the world effort to advocate for the immediate release of Gilad Shalit, held captive by terrorists for over two years.
Write to the Egyptians, who are mediating the negotiations for Gilad Shalit’s return, to urge them to intensify their efforts on Shalit’s behalf. Here is suggested text – or, write your own letter to Gilad, including a personal message of solidarity and your hopes for his imminent release.
Sample text:
I am writing to express my deep personal concern over the fate of Gilad Shalit. The fate of this abducted soldier is now in the hands of the current negotiations, and the international community is looking to you in the role of moderator to bring an immediate and humane resolution to this ongoing justice. I thank you for your decision to continue Egypt’s mediation despite the pressure from Hamas, and urge you to continue to use your diplomatic powers to facilitate Shalit’s immediate release.
