Under “administrative detention,” Palestinians held without trial face hunger, torture and even death.

      Israel has decided to kill the negotiators representing the Palestinians so that they can continue destroying Palestinian people and their homes. Netanyahu is holding onto power by extending the war and escalating the violence. The decision of the Israelis to elect him may lead to a regional war should the country begin fighting Iran.

        Oh ya, definitely. I was just being ironic by using their same phrasing to represent kidnapped Palestinians instead.

    Netanyahu either needs to negotiate the release of the hostages and return of Palestinian children as part of a ceasefire immediately, or there needs to be a vote of no confidence in his government.

      the whole Hamas plan was to attack, kidnap, negotiate release of people in prisons.

      However, they thought that IDF care about the hostages, and that Hannibal Directive is no longer taught. What follow was IDF destroying any cars leaving back to gaza with hostages. Attacking and destroying any home or location hamas was holding hostage in, blaming every death on Hamas then go into a genocidal war in Gaza.

      When two hostages with white flags get shot by IDF in the first few weeks you know the plan never to negotiate anything.

      They only negotiate when they dont get money or weapon from their allies, however the united state and uk continue to support them so why negotiate?

    It’s almost like the Israelis keep them concentrated, in camps. You might even call them “concentration camps.”

    Gotta ask yourself how Israel has hostages to exchange on “day 1” of “this” conflict

      I’m this close to being antisemitic bro

      Oh do be careful with that. Being anti-zionist is normal, plenty of Jewish people are (see: Jewish Voice for Peace). Antisemitism, is different story since it’s a kind of racism with a dark history, to say the least.

    I mean it was the Palestinians who first took Israelis hostage in October. Turn about is fair play in war.

      No, Israel has been taking Palestinians and holding them hostage in prison for decades.

      This didn’t start last year. Are you justifying what Hamas did on October 7, too? Or at least categorizing it as “fair play” as well?

      Why did Hamas take hostages on oct-7?

      Answer: To trade for the thousands of Palestinians already held hostage by Israel.

      How did Israel have thousands of hostages already if Hamas was the first to take hostages on oct-7?

      Answer: that’s just objectively not true.
