    It’s interesting how everyone just forgot about 200 hostages, still held by Hamas, including US citizens by the way.

    I’d like to know what those protesters would say to the families of the hostages.

      The only party ignoring and abandoning the hostages and foreign nationals stuck in Gaza (whom you conveniently do not mention) is Israel.

      Hamas would definitely be willing to give back hostages in exchange for concessions. And they also were willing to let foreign nationals leave, but Israel blocked the border, leading to the death of at least one of my countrywomen.

      But Israel is blinded by rage and opporunism, so it prioritizes stealing land in the West Bank above freeing hostages.

          Hamas wants Israel to stop indiscriminately bombing civilians in Gaza in exchange… Sounds perfectly reasonable to me idk

        So you think if we all ask nicely, terrorists just let hostages free. Did I understand your point correctly?

          Your usage of the word “terrorists” is misdirected. The real terrorists are the Israel Nazis that are Pro apartheid and have been blanket bombing innocent civilians for over two weeks (in the case if the current situation). Over 7000 dead, almost half of them children. Displacing millions, rounding millions up to a safe area and then bombing them. Disgusting.

            Makes more sense to call the Muslims that have been trying to genocide the Jews in Isreal the past 60 years Nazis.

            Don’t want bombed? Don’t align yourself with terrorists while trying to genocide your neighbor.

      I would guess that a ceasefire increases the probability that the hostages stay alive.

        Ceasefire increases the probability of Hezbollah attacking Israel and trying to reproduce Hamas’ successful operation.

          Where do you come up with this bullshit? What corner of the web has even the slightest bit of evidence to support such a wild theory?
