Reporting. Ow, two hostages released.
How much did Biden pay them? You know he did.
All of these two, or just most of these two?
Americans or “Americans”?
Supposedly Russia has been trying to broker the release of hostages
With credit I’m sure to the IDF and certainly not to the antisemitic biden administration. Because they are simply viewed as pawns and bargaining chips to this anti American and anti Israel administration.
I wonder how many of these “American” captives have dual citizenship?
Dual citizenship needs to be eliminated. You can’t swear allegiance to two countries. It makes no sense.
Ok 3 Billion. Next!

No, it’s because the $110 million he gave them was a ransom payment...the US probably foolishly thought it would be for all of them but Hamas thought that two would do, and the rest could be held for subsequent ransom payments.
That’s how the Muslims have always done business. Especially with a fool.
“American hostages”???
Why are there American hostages?
Ohhhhh……
It’s really just about money.
I get what you’re saying, but what about people born to US citizens (military families) serving in another country? Are they Americans or citizens of the other country. I think this is where dual-citizenship comes into play.

“return ALL the hostages, alive or dead, or Gaza gets destroyed”
... should be all they hear ...
Correct me if I am wrong. Up until around 1973, one could lose his (or her) citizenship for traveling on a foreign passport, or serving in the armed forces of another country. Since thousands of Americans served as reservists and active duty members of the IDF, and many had Israeli passports, policy (and law?) changed, with unintended consequences.
When the Iranians seized the US embassy in Tehran in 1979, they released all the hostages except for the white males. But the makeup of the current group of American hostages is probably rather different from the employees of the US embassy in 1979.
Perdicaris alive or Raisuli dead!
After WWI broke out, I think some Americans went up to Canada to fight in the war (since the US did not enter the war until 1917). I don’t know if any of them were penalized by loss of citizenship if they fought on behalf of the British Empire.
That will buy $12 million in Biden-Bucks.
32 dead Americans, and Brandon does nothing.
