Here are the relevant extracts:
"Red Cross vehicles carrying two coffins said to contain the bodies of two Israeli soldiers have crossed from Lebanon into Israel.Have you spotted it?
Israel is carrying out DNA tests to confirm their identity...
The capture of the two men in a 2006 cross-border raid sparked a 33-day war.
The relatives of the soldiers, Ehud Goldwasser and Eldad Regev, broke down in tears as they saw the images of Hezbollah handing over the two coffins.
Before the swap, it was unclear whether the two soldiers were alive or dead.
Some in Israel had held out hope that they might still be alive, but the images of two plain black coffins being delivered to the border told the soldiers' family what they had long suspected, says the BBC's Wyre Davies on the Israel-Lebanon border....
...as Lebanese militants captured the two Israeli soldiers to demand his release."
Let's see, two soldiers were captured alive and are being returned dead, so how did they die? Did they die of old age or of natural causes? Or were they murdered by their captors, the "militants" of Hezbollah.
I wonder why the BBC are not asking these questions. Actually I'm not wondering but I am very pissed off.
