What an empty offer. You have no value compared to the hostages. Hamas hates the hostages. They might hate this man too, but not in their blood the way they hate the people who have been killing them and their families. There’s no shot at this being accepted.

Hang on, I can get free press coverage, too. I AM WILLING TO BE EXCHANGED WITH THE HOSTAGES. I’M A GOOD PERSON. LOOK HOW SELFLESS I AM. WHY WON’T THEY MAKE THE EXCHANGE? I OFFERED, SO I MUST BE AWESOME.

Fuck this uncritical news media.

    If he’s really ready to go through with it, it’s not an empty offer?

    And he’s willing to exchange places with the knowledge that it may result in his death. That’s more than the majority of people in this community would likely do.

      But it is so NICE to be angry from my gaming chair at this person that I fundamentally dislike without knowing them!!!
