Kaine: Hamas May Be Keeping Hostages Because Israel’s ‘Overreacting’ and They Want People to Turn Against Israel
Breitbart ^ | 04/09/2024 | Ian hatchett

Posted on 04/09/2024 4:49:54 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

On Tuesday’s broadcast of “CNN This Morning,” Sen. Tim Kaine (D-VA) stated that Hamas may be rejecting deals to release hostages because they don’t want hostages to tell the world how Hamas brutalized them and possibly because “as long as Israel is overreacting, Hamas, who are very unconcerned about civilian casualties, may want this to play out longer” and Hamas knew “Israel would respond and would overrespond” and that has caused people like him to criticize Israel.

Co-host John Berman asked, “Senator, you came out against the United States providing offensive weapons to Israel at this point. You said you would like to stop seeing the United States providing offensive weapons to Israel, given the situation there. We learned, just this morning, that Hamas is criticizing the most recent hostage ceasefire deal. They are said to still be considering it, but they’re very pretty critical of it so far. What does it tell you that Hamas keeps rejecting ideas and proposals for ceasefires and exchange of hostages?”

There are two options here. Kaine is either extremely stupid or deliberately advocating for Hamas and against Israel. It is my suspicion that all remaining captives have been dead for some time now and Hamas has just been dangling the prospect that more will be released in order to have time to regroup. Biden’s handlers have somehow managed to give them that time.

I would be pleased to learn that the IDF is setting up a trap by pretending to pull out while leaving an elite team or traps and a spying system in place to take care of as many more Hamas terrorists as possible.

I can’t believe that our nation has gotten to the point that a large segment of our population, including political representatives are supporting Hamas and cheering for their victory. For if you support Hamas then you are saying you support the total annihilation of Israel. What Hamas did on October 7th is being totally erased from the discussion and even history itself.

“...Overreach? In defending themselves?...”

Yeah, unfortunately the “defending themselves” narrative has been rejected, whole-cloth by (leftist-controlled) media pretty much since day-one. One can’t make the “defending themselves” argument, when Israel is seen as an illegitimate, False nation, and an oppressive, occupying power, by most of the “woke” left.

So no, the narrative is pretty FIRMLY in the camp that the so-called “ZOG” is in the midst of committing a brutal genocide against the “true owners” of “Occupied Palestine”.

Or the hostages are dead and Hamas doesn’t want to admit it.

I saw the report on FR earlier- the Israeli’s are assuming they are all dead

We're assuming that Israel thinks that. But Israel should keep killing Hamas terrorists in Gaza and keep searching for the missing hostages, even if it takes another 50 years or more. Never give up hope.

Why are they holding back??

If the hostages are dead, Israel needs to go Old Testament on Hamas.

The Harv-tards were demonstrating against Israel before Iron Sword even started. Practically on the 8th of October. They aren’t “turned against” Israel. They were sorry they missed the fun, and were going after Jewish students on campus.

Hey Timmy, did the US overreact in WW2?
