If Hamas doing this works, Israel will be the laughting stock of the world.

Kill their hostages, and then they surrender ?

No other country would do this.

> True. But, they do believe non-Jews are second class citizensā€¦ <

I have an interesting perspective on that. Iā€™m not Jewish, but I spent a number of years working for an Orthodox Jewish organization (long story).

Yes, there was a very subtle ā€œyouā€™re not one of usā€ vibe there. But I was always treated politely, and with respect. There was never a hint of bias. I always felt comfortable working there.

About that vibeā€¦I took no offense, as every group has it to some extent. Sports fans, Ivy League graduates, Hungarians*, whatever.

* I added Hungarians because my grandparents were all born in Hungary. Did they think Hungarian culture was just a bit better than all others? Well, yes they did.

Leftist nonsense. The call should be to annihilate Hamas. What is wrong with these people. They always turn against Moses and God.

They simply use negotiating as a STALL TACTIC.
ā€”ā€”-

Which is why Israel keeps pounding them. No deal, no cease fire.
It is unfortunate that this group is blaming Israeli government and the IDF. They were trying to free the hostages. The Hamas brigade holding them, realizing they were surrounded and no way out, could have surrendered and let the hostages go, but instead chose to murder the hostages. There is little you can negotiate with people of such mentality.

There are no non-combatants in Gaza, period. Everyone's involved. Do not ask me again what I mean. If you can't read and comprehend what you're reading, you do not belong on this forum. If you don't like what I write, then disagree and tell me why.

One can NOT negotiate with irreligious people like Palestianians/Gazans. Any sign of any flexibility/weakness at all will lead to more bloodshed. Going forward, there should be no quarter given. Since you questioned me with no reasoning, you joined them, status-wise. Leave me alone or I will ask the moderators to make you do so.

I know I’m just a hick from the sticks, and have little to no Foreign Affairs negotiations training, but HOW is shutting down the economy of Israel going to harm HAMAS?

These protesters are about as logical as the pro-aborts and the Code Pink chicks.

I agree - it’s not as if all possible isn’t being done throughout this time. People are so ungrateful these days.

The islamist check cleared and the Democrats have setup Netanyahu (who they hate as much as Trump) to take the blame for the failed hostage rescue (which was probably undermined by US intelligence agencies).

The left has not allowed for a clear victory in a war since the 1960 and will not. There is too much money to be made, too many campaigns dependent on the conflict and no peace for citizens that might see their governments as the problem.

It’s a (Israeli) domestic political point they’re attempting to make - even if it ultimately helps Hamas.
