Sounds like the air strikes are working. KEEP IT UP!

And these folks always negotiate in good faith.

Yep. One of the biggest mistakes made during the Vietnam War were the bombing pauses. Whenever the rationale for the pause was found to be ineffective and bombing resumed, pilots had to face beefed up defenses. Unrelenting pressure is the only way to go.

HAMAS was launching missiles/rockets for years, before the HAMAS offensive of October 6, 2023.
HAMAS has continued to launch missiles/rockets every day since.

Okay.
Stop the airstrikes.
Release the hostages.
Resume the airstrikes.
Problem solved.

Negotiating with Arabs can be fickle
Do what it takes to get them released if possible
Maybe Hamas can see this hasn’t engendered much sympathy for their cause
No clue what they hoped to accomplish by slaughtering the most innocent
Fear I guess

Yet Hamas continues to lob missiles at Israel.
No, they won't release all the prisoners. This is a stalling tactic. Hamas is getting hammered very hard, and having China and Russia beg Israel to pause the bombings and don't do the ground assault tells you everything you need to know.
Hamas is getting its ass kicked severely.

Ha! Hamas went from : "We will video executions for every bomb you drop without 30min notification" to "We are ready to release the hostages.
Good. Empty all IDF prisons. March every paly prisoner back into Gaza AFTER we account for all hostages, or remains.
Then bomb then walk a barrage until they spill into Egypt. Let them build their own nation in the Sinai desert, or ship them to Iran or Turkey.

Release them all, alive and unharmed, then, we’ll talk.
To: Optionhome
My counter would be the bombings will continue until all the hostages are released. So release them now and the bombing stop.
To: DeplorablePaul
You betcha. I agree 100%. Hitting the pause button during a war is like giving the other team time to regroup.

Agree. Then, when the hostages are released, resume the bombings.

Possibly also government collapse in Israel as a goal of Hamas/Iran.
