Returning Our Soldiers

Eldad Regev, 26, from Kiryat Motzkin, and Ehud Goldwasser, 31, from Nahariya, were kidnapped on the northern border by the Hezbollah today, one year ago. Two weeks prior to their abduction, on June 25, Gilad Shalit, was abducted as well, this time on the Israeli side of the border with Gaza. To date no word has been heard from the two captive soldiers, and neither their families nor the government of Israel have any knowledge of their whereabouts or their current state of health.

Even though the SMolmert government seems to have forgotten about them, we refuse to do so. We pray daily for their safe return home.

Leading Israeli Internet web sites shut down operations for five minutes at 9 am Israel time, demanding from the Israel government and the UN to bring back our boys home.

Pidyon Shevuyim, Redeeming Captives, takes precedence over most other deeds. Sodot is offering a special English section on their website, including candle lighting and Tehillim, for the abducted soldiers. http://my.intermail.co.il/affiliates/sodot/sodot.asp
