Two-hundred days and counting. No mention of American hostages held by HAMAS, which we are no resupplying and defending from Israel.

Hamas published a propaganda video showing Israeli-American hostage Hersh Goldberg-Polin on Wednesday on their Telegram channel.

...

n the video, Goldberg-Polin notes that he was hanging out with friends at the Nova Music Festival when Hamas attacked the festival and kidnapped him and his friends, countering claims that Hamas leaders have made in the past that they did not target civilians.

Goldberg-Polin was seriously injured by a grenade during the Hamas assault on the Nova Music Festival and lost his left hand.

...

The Biden administration received the video on Monday, two days before Hamas published it to the public, and officials got in contact with Goldberg-Polin's family right after, a US official told CNN.

The Hostages and Missing Families Forum stressed after the publication of the video that "for more than 200 days, 133 hostages have been held captive by Hamas, enduring daily physical, sexual, and psychological torment."

Biden-Harris Hostage Crisis - Day 200 [America Surrendered]

Two-hundred days and counting. No mention of American hostages held by HAMAS, which we are no resupplying and defending from Israel.

This report from JPOST is extremely disturbing. Biden hasn't spoken of or tied release of Americans since forever, if at all. Here he got notice a few days ago about Hersh Goldber-Polin and he says nothing, no hold on resupplying HAMAS, not public statement, especially in response to HAMAS sympathizers protesting and committing terrorism in the US. What if he had shown leadership and spoke to them, point out that Americans are being held hostage, Americans have been attacked, raped, beheaded, and killed. Americans.

Where's the outrage? The daily reminders?

Almost all, if not all, of the hostages are dead.

At 200 days, especially the babies, I’m sure you are correct. Maybe that is why Biden and Harris are silent as they don’t want to face dead Americans at the hands of HAMAS animals.

I read that the bodies of the deceased are given so much respect in Israel that even though they have known confirmed dead - they still call them hostages.

I don’t know what DJT would have done, but I am willing to believe we would have had them all back not long after they were taken.
