Indeed, the most intense - if indirect - bargaining under way right now involves Hamas and Israel, over the list of the Palestinian prisoners Israel will be required to release in exchange for the return of Corporal Gilad Shalit, the Israeli soldier seized last summer on the Israeli side of the Gaza border. Israel is balking at Hamas's inclusion on its list of men Israel says have blood on their hands; Hamas is saying that there won't be a deal if they're removed from...
