    So a whopping 2 hostages on the day of the attack, of which one was critically injured, which was more than a month ago.

    Definitely Hamas HQ confirmed. Was worth all that civilian collateral to capture.

    At least they finally got some footage so we don’t have to rely on some crappy IDF PS1 graphics renders.

      There are more than two hostages. They’ve already found one of the previous hostages dead near the hospital grounds.

      Wait until more footage comes through

        A dead person near a hospital?!? Say it ain’t so doc, people can’t die at hospitals of all places. Everyone knows Dairy Queen is the place to take a hostage for medical care.

    Can we yet dispense with the fiction that hamas is fighting some just war?

    Hiding behind civilians and intentionally using their deaths as propaganda is terrible.

    Also, free palestine, fuck hamas, fuck likud, fuck Iran, and fuck Russia.

      I don’t think anyone is saying the war is just but rather relatable. If someone occupied my country, killed my family and took my family land I can’t say I’d react any different.

        You’d sneak into their villages and go door to door killing thousands of innocent people in their homes? And do the same to young people at a music festival?

        I think we can all relate to resistance, but this is something else.

    Again people lose sight of the fact that regardless of hamas actions, that doesn’t justify the killing of thousands of kids and families that are taking shelter in the hospital.

    If anything, the medical staff and families are also hostages and they shouldn’t be killed either.

    People kept arguing about the tunnel and the hospital ignoring the genocidal killing of Palestinians.

    Tunnels or Hamas using the biggest and maybe only hospital Doesn’t justify the bombing of the hospital while people still getting treated from other bombing…

      Let’s be accurate here. Thousands have died in Gaza as a result of this conflict, but Israel clearly did not kill thousands at Shifa Hospital.

      Hamas surrenders, releases hostages and it’s done. But Hamas is the one pushing this war and they’re using the suffering of their own people to push propaganda - and people like yourself support their efforts.

          They have literally no chance to win while causing great suffering on everyone around them.

          I don’t know how a sane person could advocate for HAMAS to continue their terrorist actions.

              Nobody is supporting Hamas. They’re saying that there’s no justification for the genocide that Israel is engaging in.

              It doesn’t matter what either side has done when the response is to murder children. It’s all unjustifiable.

            It is certainly better to kill Israeli soldiers than it is to not kill them. Peace has been tried for over 30 years, but Israel has refused. It’s about time Palestine started fighting back. Genociders do not listen to anything short of warfare and terrorism.

            Put yourself in Hamas miltant shoe. Mostly now had lost family members, living since born in a prison, you cannot go to sea, or cross to Egypt or even other part of the country.

            What do you think Winning means for them ?

          As opposed to the heavy resistance Hamas is currently putting up?

          If Israel wanted a genocide they could easily accomplish it. They clearly do not. This entire line of argumentation is beyond stupid.
