Political negotiations only work if combined with kidnappings
"During a seminar at the Islamic University in Gaza… Freed prisoner Izz A-Din Al-Masri argued that negotiations alone cannot lead to the release of the prisoners, nor will kidnapping soldiers alone lead to the release of prisoners. It is necessary for both aspects – political negotiations and the Jihadi aspect – to be combined together within the framework of a clear program of activity for the sake of the prisoners."
