A Palestinian boy sleeps under a poster for Kidnaped Israeli soldiers by Palestinian militants laid at the reception tent of Hamas freed Palestinian prisoner Yehia Sinwar laid upon his return in the southern Gaza Strip town of Khan Yunis on October 19, 2011. Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit and hundreds of Palestinians crossed Israel's borders in opposite directions on Tuesday as a thousand-for-one prisoner exchange brought joy to families but did little to ease decades of conflict.
