I’m still furious about the despicable attempt to deflect responsibility from Hxmas for executing hostages by spinning it into Israel’s fault because they won’t just pay a ransom that will inevitably put thousands of future families in the same position. Getting hostages home and dismantling the evil group that kidnapped/killed so many are not mutually exclusive tasks. You cannot give up on the former to satisfy the latter, or vice versa. The best chance Israel has to get a deal that will not endanger more lives for years to come is to tighten the noose around Sinwar. I also want to emphasize that the current negotiation should be referred to as a ransom negotiation, not ceasefire talks. These are evil terrorists holding innocent hostages at gunpoint making demands. The facade of mediators from Qatar and Egypt being at a diplomatic table doesn’t change that reality. https://bird.makeup/@aghamilton29/1830102724563624163
