Friends and supporters of Noam and Aviva Shalit, parents of abducted Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit who was captured in 2006 by Hamas-allied militants in the Gaza Strip, gather at the family's protest tent on the 1,935th day for their son's captivity outside Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's residence in Jerusalem on October 12, 2011. Israelis welcomed on Wednesday a major prisoner swap that will free soldier Gilad Shalit after five years in captivity in return for the release of 1,000 Palestinians, but emotions were mixed over the lopsided exchange negotiated with Hamas.
