Whilst visiting a Tel Aviv high school, Foreign Minister and Kadima leader Tzipi Livni said Monday that she refused to politicize the issue of captured IDF soldier Gilad Schalit's release, as it would be "wrong and unworthy" to do so. "I am willing to give up parts of Israel in order to live here peacefully and sustain Israel as a Jewish and democratic state, but security must be provided - you cannot just throw a key to the other side of the border and say that everything will be fine," she added.
