This is the dramatic moment an Israeli snatch squad led freed hostages into a waiting helicopter to escape Gaza after a deadly firefight that killed one IDF soldier.

The quick escape came after four Israeli hostages were freed by the rescue squad who came under heavy fire while they carried out a daring raid in Hamas-controlled Gaza.

But the mission left one officer Arnon Zmora dead after troops raided two locations in a 'complex daytime operation' at 11:00am (8am GMT) today.

And what’s the great war hero, Biden, doing about our hostages. I thought he would have gone in and personally rescued them by now. No, he’s too busy building break apart piers to supply Hamas.

Biden sending food to the terrorist kidnappers of Americans while actively blocking military action that could save them. He is a senile traitor.

It’s been eight months since the Hamas attack. The things done to them during that time will haunt them for the rest of their lives, things I can’t imagine living through.

I think the world concluded that the Israelis were done with Gaza and just give up and go back to Israel. Now the whole world took a breath and had to say, maybe Israel needs to finish the job. Please tell all those a*shole protestors in Washinton to immolate themselves.

Now Coca-Cola is going to be a target.

Israel should have carpet bombed the area upon their departure. Folks need to learn that letting Hamas set up in their neighborhood comes with a cost.

Netanyahu knows who’s in the so called “democrat” regime that has taken over the US.
That’s why Netanyahu isn’t listening to the demented figurehead.
And that’s why Israel is winning and searching for hostages.
The regime here doesn’t give a rip about hostages.
Their objective is complete control.

Look for biden to condemn this operation as a needless escalation of hostilities.

Remember, the overwhelming factor that determined whether holocaust survivors were able to successfully regain normal life afterwards, was not what had been done to them, but how they responded to what had been done to them. Not to be trivial, but to paraphrase a line from a movie, “Live. No matter what happens, live!”
