Shlomo Goldwasser, the father of Israeli reserve soldier Ehud Goldwasser whose capture by Hezbollah in a cross-border raid in 2006 triggered a 34-day war with the Iranian-backed group, speaks to the media outside his home in the northern city of Nahariya July 16, 2008. Israel and Lebanon's Hezbollah guerrilla group were set to swap prisoners on Wednesday two years after the two sides fought a month-long war. Under a deal mediated by a German intelligence officer, Israel was to free five prisoners in exchange for two soldiers, one of them Goldwassser, captured by Hezbollah guerrillas in a 2006 cross-border raid, who are widely presumed dead, government officials said.
