Thousands of people are holding demonstrations across Israel, calling on the government to secure a deal to free the remaining hostages in Gaza.
In Tel Aviv, demonstrators gathered at a plaza informally known as Hostages Square, holding up pictures of the hostages along with signs that read, “Bring them home now.”
Earlier, the crowd also acknowledged Saturday's rescue of four hostages from Gaza and cheered the Israeli military for securing their release.
Many are also demanding new elections, saying Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's current government must step down. Netanyahu faces growing domestic political pressure, including the possible resignation of a key member in the country's emergency wartime government.
Nope Israel will just find Nother reason to keep doing what they want to do...Good.
The dying will not stop until they are all free or dead. God help everyone if Hamas goes with the dead option.
From your link to CNN:
War brought to any densely packed urban environment was always going to be a slaughter.Big story but little mention of the continued mass slaughter of civilians in the process...

Collateral is dramatically increased via Hamas methods.
This does not excuse other conduct reported on during this war. Those issues, Israel's overzealous crimes, are separate from the primary cause that legitimately continues this bloodshed. That is the hostage taking. I will not call for a ceasefire until that issue is resolved.
Gaslit genocide apologists have no limits, a million ppl would be "collateral damage" to them. Deliberate policies to kill, starve and ethnically cleanse populations just flies over their heads. Accepting official Israeli statements or positions over the far more credible human rights organizations who have documented these practices over decades means nothing to them. Like fucking MAGAts still cheering for Trump despite all the facts slapping them in the face every day.Israeli fatalities since/inc. Oct 7th: ~1200
Palestinian fatalities since Oct 7th: >30000
"I'm absolutely fine with genocide but hostage-taking is where I draw the line!"
You're like a parody of an Israeli mouthpiece. Put down the clown nose and shoes.
Your buddy the PM seems to be fine with the dead option. His government has stated they will keep killing in Gaza until Hamas is "destroyed". This is an impossible objective without literally killing every human in Gaza.Good.

What makes you think that is not Likud's / Hama's goal?Your buddy the PM seems to be fine with the dead option. His government has stated they will keep killing in Gaza until Hamas is "destroyed". This is an impossible objective without literally killing every human in Gaza.
What they have managed to do is lay the foundation for the next conflict in 15-20 years.
So yeah fuck off.
Anti-Israel any? Hamas knew all these things would happen when they attacked on Oct. 7. There was no other possibility. Hamas started it, the goings on were absolutely predictable. What was their excuse?Nope Israel will just find Nother reason to keep doing what they want to do...
It's very easy to be anti-Israel. Pretty much always.Anti-Israel any? Hamas knew all these things would happen when they attacked on Oct. 7. There was no other possibility. Hamas started it, the goings on were absolutely predictable. What was their excuse?
I don't support Hamas, but don't you think one would be absolutely nuts to expect no push-back from approximately 80 years of Israel kicking Palestinians out of their homes and subjecting the population of Palestine to an apartheid regime?Anti-Israel any?

Headlines with question marks are frequently propaganda.The person holding Noa Argamani hostage in his home was an Al Jazeera “journalist” who was ALSO Hamas’ Ministry of Labor spokesperson
His father (also in the house) is a doctor
And all of this was in a “refugee camp”
we all know Israel lies.Headlines with question marks are frequently propaganda.
Embedded themselves? Hamas created the social services and civilian infrastructure after Israel refused and the PA failed. That's how Hamas was elected in the first place. The utter failure of the Israeli state to provide for the people living under Israeli rule and the corruption of the PA led directly to the rise of Hamas.we all know Israel lies.
we all know Hamas lies.
we all know Hamas embedded itself into the social services and civilian infrastructure.
is it propaganda? or is it the truth? Can you know?
Hamas has not won an election in Gaza in the majority of Gaza civilian's populations living memory.Embedded themselves?

Then why did the Israeli state continue to allow this situation to continue? Israel is the only viable government of the Gaza Strip. The welfare of the Palestinian people living under Israeli rule is an Israeli responsibility yet the Israeli government only encouraged the continued existence of Hamas. Exterminating the Palestinian people under its rule is the option Israel has chosen to finally address the situation, I suppose.Hamas has not won an election in Gaza in the majority of Gaza civilian's populations living memory.
Hamas is a police state, nothing more. A tyrannical overlord, financed by outside interests who do not have the Palestinian people's welfare as a priority, or even a secondary consideration.
Well you certainly don’t have the evidence to answer the question.we all know Israel lies.

Yet Israel continued to send Hamas money and did nothing to change the situation.Hamas has not won an election in Gaza in the majority of Gaza civilian's populations living memory.
