Well worth the read. Iraq the Model has posted a number of comments from Iraqis about the kidnapping of Gilad Shilat along with comments from other Arabs commenting on the Iraqi comments. From Omar:

But what really makes me feel optimistic about this new Iraqi way of thinking is that it shows how Iraqis are beginning to distinguish between terrorism and rightful acts of resistance not only in Iraq but also on a global level and are showing decreasing tolerance for extremism and this in my opinion is what builds peace in the region or any given region of this world.

Do a little dance.....
