Popular Post Social Media Posted February 12 Author Popular Post Share Posted February 12 Topic Update: IDF special forces rescue 2 hostages in 'daring' overnight operation in Rafah In a daring nighttime operation, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) successfully rescued two male Israeli hostages from the city of Rafah in Gaza, amidst heavy Israeli airstrikes targeting the area. The hostages, identified as Fernando Simon Marman, 60, and Louis Har, 70, were found to be in good medical condition after their rescue and were swiftly transported to an Israeli hospital for further evaluation and care. The IDF, in collaboration with the Israel Security Agency (ISA) and Israel Police, conducted the joint operation, marking a significant victory for Israeli security forces. The operation's success was hailed by Defense Minister Yoav Gallant as "impressive," reaffirming Israel's commitment to retrieving abducted citizens by any means necessary. Reports indicate that the hostages had been held captive on the second floor of a building in Rafah, highlighting the perilous conditions they endured prior to their rescue. The exact details of the operation remain undisclosed, but footage released by the IDF showed a helicopter landing at an undisclosed location, suggesting the involvement of aerial assets in the rescue mission. Upon their arrival at Sheba Medical Center in central Israel, the rescued hostages underwent initial medical assessments and were reported to be in stable condition. Armon Aek, acting director at the medical center, expressed relief at their safe return and praised the swift response of the medical staff in attending to their needs. The rescue operation comes in the wake of escalating tensions in the region, with Hamas militants unleashing a deadly assault on southern Israel, resulting in numerous casualties and the abduction of innocent civilians. Israel's decisive action to retrieve its citizens underscores its unwavering commitment to safeguarding the lives of its people and maintaining security within its borders. In response to the escalating violence, Israel launched a series of airstrikes targeting key Hamas positions in Rafah and surrounding areas. Eyewitnesses reported intense bombardment by air and sea, indicating a concerted effort by Israeli forces to neutralize Hamas threats and secure the safe return of the hostages. Conflicting reports emerged regarding the casualties from the airstrikes, with figures ranging from 37 to 52 Palestinians killed, including children, according to various sources. The disparity underscores the chaotic and volatile situation on the ground, with Gaza's Hamas-run health ministry condemning the Israeli military's actions as indiscriminate and disproportionate.

So, the bottom line is two elderly hostages were rescued and were found to be in good health. The cost for that was 40 to 50 (or more) Palestinians killed, most of them probably civilians. Two apparently well-treated hostages were rescued at the cost of 40 to 50 other people's lives, and many of you on this Topic see this as a reason to celebrate.

I have heard on CNN's TV News that the Palestinian dead could be as many as 60. I have no link for that, but I'm sure those numbers will continue to be made available to us as the day goes by. And anyway, whether it was 10, 20, 40, or 60 makes no difference to the point I am making. That is, many of you on this Topic place no value on the lives of the Palestinians. Sixty dead for two released is okay with you. That, to me, shows your bias and anti-Semitism. Shame on you! Update: CNN in now reporting "over 100" Palestinians killed."

Okay, then 2:1. That would be about a 67:33 ration, or, if CNN's latest 100-killed number proves to be reasonably accurate, 67 civilians.

Far too much speculation and terrorists being killed in a war is expected when the IDF is targeting them and they are targeting the IDF.

CNN reported that the Palestinians killed today were a part of the hostage retrieval operation, a diversionary tactic. I didn't hear of any IDF being killed, but there was a report of one being wounded (or hurt somehow).

Captain Monday Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 (edited) 8 hours ago, Morch said: Reading these topics, there are certainly some on here which justify Hamas's actions, normalize them, see them as 'freedom fighters'. Looking out into the world outside this forum, quite a lot of that as well. So when you say, 'no rational person' No rational person supports terrorism. 8 hours ago, Morch said: Spin it as you like - Hamas is (was?) the de-facto ruler of the Gaza Strip. When it suits, people treat Hamas rule as 'inevitable', or as being a representation of the people's will. When it doesn't - they are a terrorist group that can't be expected to be accountable for its actions. Wanting to have it both ways is cool. So Morch , - what does that even mean in this context? 8 hours ago, Morch said: People go on and on about 'war crimes', somehow imagining that saying 'war crimes' make them a fact. Well, 'war crimes' are something that is decided through a rather lengthy legal process, and them rules allow a whole lot of things in reality. Some of you don't seem to grasp that. Rubbish, I already explained that to you clearly. You have common sense. To know what a war crime is we do not have to wait for the results of an international tribunal. And pointless because Israel, with full diplomatic cover of the United States will never let its officials or military officers be subject to the jusrisdiction, judgements, and punishments of such a proceeding if it were to ever happen anyway. 8 hours ago, Morch said: As for two wrongs don't make a right - that's a laugh. A whole lot of the arguments against Israel/pro-Hamas/Palestinians here are that Israel's wrongs made Hamas's attack legit, expected, justified and so on. Again, trying to have it both ways is cool. Notice, also, that I'm not so much defending Israel's actions, as protesting the lack of balance when treating things. Glad to hear that you are not defending Israels actions. I am positive know that you know two wrongs don't make a right. Might makes right. Do what I say, not what I do.
