Soldiers' dog tags captivate Congress
From Jpost.com

When US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi traveled to the Middle East in April, she brought with her a piece of jewelry that was not part of the standard politician's attire. It was a replica set of dog tags of the three IDF soldiers kidnapped last year; she presented them to Syrian leader Bashar Assad in Damascus, to pressure him to work for their return.

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi holds up her FreeTheSoldiers dog tags as she addresses the AIPAC conference in March.

NOTEABLE QUOTES:

“Despite major efforts spent by the facilitator and flexibility by Israel beyond the framework of UNSC-Resolution 1701, implementation of the resolution’s humanitarian aspects has not yet been possible.  Controversial issues raised by Hizbullah require sustained and complicated efforts for reaching a solution.  Progress is therefore slow but continues.  The situation unfortunately is aggravated by Hizbullah’s persistent refusal to provide a proof of life.  Worries are thus increasing about the fate of the two soldiers.  I share deeply the anxiety of the families and call again on Hizbullah to reconsider this posture which contradicts basic humanitarian values.
- Ban Ki Moon, UN Secretary General

“Karnit gave me these copies of their dog tags. I keep them on display in the Speaker’s office as a reminder of my promise to do everything in my power to get information on the soldiers and work for their release. Ehud, Eldad, and Gilad are always in our prayers.”
- Nancy Pelosi, Speaker of the House

"I rise tonight to make sure that the plight of the soldiers is not forgotten. I rise to honor the sacrifice of these soldiers and their families who wait everyday for news of their circumstances. Here in my hand I have a copy of their dogtags. The United Jewish Communities delivered a copy of the dogtags to every member of Congress to help raise awareness that it has been one year since the families have heard from their loved ones. It has been one whole year since they have seen their husband, son, brother. These families have not heard one word from the captors about whether they are OK."
- Ron Klein, House Representative
