Hamas has indicated it is currently unable to identify and track down 40 Israeli hostages needed for the first phase of a ceasefire deal, according to an Israeli official and a source familiar with the discussions, raising fears that more hostages may be dead than are publicly known.
The look of a poker player that ran out of chips…
They’ve found bodies of hostages all the time. One just yesterday. I suppose you could do some math to estimate probability of who is living. Only Hamas would know,except they claim not to.
Hamas made a statement like 1-2 months ago that said roughly said “If israel knew where the hostages were they would kill them all”
You are endorsing israel doing exactly that.
Ahh, yes, they aren’t even hostages. hamas took them so they would be protected from Israel.
So would the argument then be if Hamas kidnaps all Israelis, Israelis would be better protected?
The argument is that israel is intentionally killing kidnapped israelis to remove leverage Hamas has over israel. And that he was endorsing israel doing that.
Hamas kidnapping all israelis would mean the IDF (somehow not being kidnapped) would try to kill all israels. Not sure how that makes them safer.
