Trump demands immediate release of Oct. 7 hostages, says otherwise there will be ‘HELL TO PAY’

NEW YORK —  President-elect Donald Trump is demanding the immediate release of the Israeli hostages still being held in Gaza, saying that if they are not freed before he is sworn into office there will be “HELL TO PAY.”

“Please let this TRUTH serve to represent that if the hostages are not released prior to January 20, 2025, the date that I proudly assume Office as President of the United States, there will be ALL HELL TO PAY in the Middle East, and for those in charge who perpetrated these atrocities against Humanity,” Trump wrote in a post on his Truth Social site.

He added that, “Those responsible will be hit harder than anybody has been hit in the long and storied History of the United States of America. RELEASE THE HOSTAGES NOW!”

The war in Gaza began when Hamas-led militants stormed into southern Israel, killing some 1,200 people, mostly civilians, and taking around 250 people hostage on Oct. 7, 2023.

Trump’s threat came hours after the Israeli government confirmed the death of Omer Neutra, a dual U.S.-Israeli citizen, whose body is still believed to be held by Hamas in Gaza, according to the Israeli government.

Days earlier, Hamas released a hostage video of Edan Alexander, who was serving in the Israeli military when he was taken by Hamas to Gaza. Filmed under apparent duress, Alexander calls on Trump to work to negotiate for his freedom and that of the remaining Hamas hostages.

Trump has declared war on the Deep State.

His life is in extreme danger.

Greatest President since George Washington.

Any bets that they get let go? I am pretty certain that they will or there will be MOAB bombs raining down.

At first, I misread it, and thought it said J6 hostages. 😀

Why do you think someone tried to smuggle ammo into the Congress - someplace there is a weapon that matches that ammo...

I was thinking the Jan. 6th hostages. That was another Trump demand earlier along with Hunter.

So did I, and I posted it. My first comment is because I thought it was J6.

Hell to Pay!

That has such a more credible ring coming from PDJT, as opposed to from Slick's one-time squeeze (HRC).

I’m OK with there being hell to pay.

I believe that CRT, DEI, feminism, and faggotry haven’t damaged the US military as much as some folks here claim ... and that if turned loose by a “Real President” with sane ROE in support of an ally, NOBODY would want to be on the receiving end.

That said: CRT, DEI, feminism, and faggotry must be purged from the US Military.

He said “storied.”

Makes me think of tall buildings. How many stories were the WTC buildings?

Which makes me think of “Faster than a speeding bullet! More powerful than a locomotive! Able to leap tall buildings in a single bound! Look! Up in the sky! It’s a bird! It’s a plane! It's SUPERMAN!” 😊

I remember reading that on the B-52 were pounding Hanoi, prisoners of the Hanoi Hilton were cheering as the bombs fell and they saw their captors terrorized.
