I of Newton:
Not often you see a major chunk of a TV show with just two characters. But, it plays very well.
Ron Glass (Shepherd Book from Firefly and Serenity) as some lesser servant of the devil with Sherman Hemsley (George Jefferson from The Jeffersons and All in the Family) have a verbal joust.
Fun quotes from the servant's t-shirts:
HELL IS A SUMMER FESTIVAL
HELL IS A CITY MUCH LIKE NEWARK
OVER 2,000,000,000 SERVED
GEHENNA MORE THAN A PLACE A WAY OF LIFE
LET'S DO DAMNATION
The whole thing is expert in so many ways. Wow.

Prisoner exchanges
I hate prisoner exchanges in general.
However, there's some wisdom to be seen in the value of the exchange.
If one imprisoned Israeli soldier is worth 20, 30, 50 imprisoned Palestinians [or whatever, who cares?], what value does that contribute or deteriorate from the value of those other prisoners. Imagine: "You're only worth 1/20 of that soldier that was traded. But, that's the best deal we could swing." Real wake-up, ain't it?
If Palestinians can not comprehend the valuelessness of their terror/horror-based campaigns against Israel, then there's nothing to be done for remedying that complete and utter lack of awareness. Nothing.
