Hersh Goldberg-Polin, 23. Originally from California, Goldberg-Polin immigrated to Israel with his family as a young child. He was taken at gunpoint by Hamas militants while at the Nova music festival.

In August his parents spoke at the Democratic party convention, where they were greeted by a crowd that chanted: “Bring them home.”

Eden Yerushalmi was in contact with the police and with her sisters after the attack. ‘They’ve caught me,’ were her last words to them.

Carmel Gat had been staying with her parents in kibbutz Be’eri on 7 October, one of the communities hardest hit by the attack. Hamas fighters broke into their home and kidnapped her; her mother was killed in the attack.

Alexander Lobanov’s five-month-old son was born while he was in captivity.

Almog Sarusi was taken hostage as his girlfriend, who was shot, succumbed to her injuries.

Ori Danino had been helping others try to escape when he was abducted.

I wouldn't characterize either party as being particularly free from bias. It's a shame that ground-level reporters have such a frequent tendency to die.

They are both asshats and Netanyahu is a psychopath. No denying that.

If Hamas would release these fucking hostages Israel would lose the ability to continue their siege. But they won’t.

Israel constantly says they won't stop if hostages are released. They will only stop once they've killed all hamas, which by their definition of hamas is anyone in Gaza

Do you have a source to go with that or are you just shooting from the hip?

Oof you're a tool. Here's some.context: https://www.npr.org/2024/01/04/1222813493/what-will-it-take-for-israel-to-affirm-mission-accomplished-in-gaza-and-end-the-

That's 8 months old and everyone alreadt knew the hostages were just a political token benji was using to genocide the local ethnic minority.

Go ahead and your head out of your ass and play catch up with the rest of us. The powers that be dont give a shit about the hostages. Lol

What does this transcript of a radio recording have to do with anything? I read the whole thing and don’t see what point you’re trying to make.

No one thinks Netanyahu wants the war to end. Right now he has free rein because Hamas continues to hold hostages and won’t free them.

It would be suicide for him to continue this if the hostages were freed.

I really appreciate your enthusiastic degrading comments directed at me.

https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry/netanyahu-we-will-not-agree-to-hostage-deal-at-any-price-there-are-red-lines-we-wont-cross/

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu releases a video statement stressing that “we are working to attain another framework to release our captives, but I stress — not at any price.”

“We have red lines,” he continues, “including: we will not end the war, we will not pull the IDF out of the Strip, we will not release thousands of terrorists.”

The prime minister says that in addition to working to get the hostages out, Israel is working toward its other goals in the war — “the elimination of Hamas and to ensure that Gaza never again represents a threat.”

“We are working on all three of them together and we will not give up on any of them.”

Thank you. Got anything more recent than 9 months ago?

[-] goferking0@lemmy.sdf.org 5 points 2 months ago

Oh I see. No citation or sources are enough for you.

Israel hasn't done anything different since Oct 7th. They've even assassinated the negotiatior.

It's a what's the point when nothing will satisfy you

[-] ThirdWorldOrder@lemm.ee 1 points 2 months ago

For anyone else then? Do you have anything?

[-] goferking0@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 2 months ago

I'm not the one throwing shit at everyone in the thread in order to make terrible actions by a country look better
