Seems almost inevitable at this point but with the lack of informing in and out of gaza it seems unlikely we’ll ever know for sure.
One of the first hostages that was brought in by the IDF said everyone else was mowed down by gun fire and that they shot two tank rounds into the small home where they were being held. The man interviewing her tried steering her away from making a declaration that it was the IDF and then they left that part out when the interview was released to the Israeli public.
Part of me feels like they don’t want to actually get the hostages back. So far all the testimonials from released hostages have been contradicting everything the Zionists have been claiming about Hamas, and those captives probably will have a more sympathetic view toward Palestinians after their ordeal and more hatred of the Zionist state because of it.
The Zionists don’t care about people that might not be loyalists now that they have been personally subject to the realities on the ground.
The most recent radio war nerd has some discussion of this. The people captured aren’t part of neranyahu’s voting bloc so he doesn’t give a shit, and every single one that gets released and says they were treated well damages him and his political movement. They are more useful dead than alive, that’s part of what this indiscriminate bombing is for.
thanks I will check that out, but yeah that’s been my suspicions since the first interviews with hostages came out.
I at first had hoped maybe the number of captives would deter this kind of indiscriminate slaughter, but once those videos started popping up I was like “ah fuck they’re just going to flatten the whole place.”
Also Finkelstein is on the latest TrueAnon talking about all this as well. https://soundcloud.com/trueanonpod/its-not-too-late
Yeah. You can kind of tell that Israel has been using this as an excuse to launch offensive action against anyone, which is leaving Hamas confused as they thought they would have some leverage in negotiating a hostage crisis.
Although I don’t know what Hamas was thinking doing this. Israel has had a history of turning a defensive war into offensive action.
Hamas claims 30 or 40 hostages killed in the bombings iirc
any dead hostage that wasn’t filmed being executed almost certainly died to israeli bombs or bomb-like things. There’s no value to hamas killing them out of sight.
