It is hard to wish someone a "Happy" Birthday when they are being held captive. This Shabbos will be the 24th Birthday of Gilad Shalit. Hopefully this will be his final birthday in captivity.
His case is a real case of Pidyon Shvuyim min haTorah and we have an obligation to help secure his release please Send a message of support to Gilad Shalit http://www.giladgreetings.org/
Gilad Shalit has been held captive by Hamas for four long years. For more than 1,500 days, he has been denied visits by the Red Cross and cut off from all contact with his family. Tell Gilad he is not alone as he marks his 24th birthday on August 28th and his fifth Rosh Hashanah in captivity.
The Conference of Presidents will deliver your message to the International Committee of the Red Cross and demand that Hamas allow the ICRC to visit and deliver the messages to Gilad in accordance with international humanitarian law.
also send along your Rosh Hashanah message at GiladGreetings.org
Thanks
Renaud
