Do you not see the flaw there? 

 

With Israel vowing to wipe out Hamas, what incentive is there to release the hostages or even keep them alive?  Not to mention that, until the rescue operation, the hostages served as a bargaining chip and a shield against attack.  Now, they're useless for either purpose.  Just a burden and an existential threat pending the next rescue operation that will kill dozens, perhaps hundreds, many of them kids.  Doesn't bode well for the remaining hostages.

 

 

 

Seems that Hamas made a simple mistake of allowing the hostages to be taken alive. That only increases the chances that the IDF will try again. I suspect they won't make that mistake again.

No idea but then we also do not know how many were murdered by Hamas. But the point of my post was hope to getting more out alive.

Dead hostages are of no use, and the ones rescued were in good health ( according to israeli statements seen on Al Jazeera ). There is no point of murdering hostages unless in imminent chance of being released by the IDF.

  Dead hostages are still held and used to bargain .

Hamas use dead/alive hostages to make demands an Hamas doesn't guarantee that the hostages will still be alive when handed over to Israel

From UN special rapporteur.

 

 


Relieved that four hostages have been released. It should not have come at the expense of at least 200 Palestinians, including children, killed and over 400 injured by Israel and allegedly foreign soldiers, while perfidiously hiding in an aid truck. This is "humanitarian camouflage" at another level. Israel has used hostages to legitimise killing, injuring, maiming, starving and traumatising Palestinians in Gaza. And while intensifying violence against Palestinians in the rest of the occupied territory and Israel. Israel could have freed all hostages, alive and intact, 8 months ago when the first ceasfire and hostage exchange was put on the table. Yet, Israel refused in order to continue to destroy Gaza and the Palestinians as a people. This is genocidal intent turned into action. Crystal clear.

   I agree , the hostages should have not been taken in the first place , or once they had been taken the hostages should have been released without the IDF needing to kill 200 Palestinians to free them

Amazing new footage just released by Israeli police of the moment Noa was rescued. Heart breaking hearing her first words.

 

"Body cam footage of the heroic hostage rescue of Noa Argamani by Israel Police’s Yamam forces, IDF, and ISA"

"Noa, we came to save you and bring you home."

Those were the first words IDF soldiers told Noa Argamani moments after storming the Gaza apartment where she was being held by terrorists.

One soldier recounts: "The moment we broke into the apartment where Noa was held, we encountered three terrorists there and quickly neutralized them, reaching Noa's room within seconds. 

One of the fighters carried her on his back. She was barefoot. We wrapped her with fighters around her, and we left as quickly as possible after ensuring the apartment was clear of terrorists.

At this stage, the air force supported us, and we entered a vehicle in order to retreat. She was terrified; I don't think she believed what was happening before her eyes. 

Her first question was whether her mother was still alive. I told her yes. She looked right and left at us and asked again if we were sure. We told her yes, 'that's why we came, to bring you back to your mother.'"

No, IDF acts with a great deal of restraint, forced upon the Nation by the western snowflakes. The war could be finished by now if left to Israel's decision makers.

Would you prefer there were no restraints?

Hamas prefers as many restraints as possible on the IDF eliminating them right?

Of course, had Tsahal ignored the WW (Wimpish West) from the beginning the war would be over by now, with fewer collaterals.

If there were no hostages left alive, and the IDF knew that, can you imagine the ferocity of the Israeli bombardment? 

Hard to imagine it being worse but.

Do you know the names of the Thai hostages or even how many there are?

I meant that if hostages were likely to be rescued, booby trap the room to kill them and any would be rescuers.

A great video about the mentality of HAMAS, islamists and jahidists explained by an ex Muslim Iranian.

The difficulties involved freeing the captives...........🤔.........

 

 

Amazing rescue:

 

They carried her out on their backs. The emotions of the moment. The taking of her safety in their hands. A nation committed to her return, warriors sent into the fire to rescue her. Respect.
