Forces had no direct confrontation with Hamas terrorists who killed hostages; ‘The IDF and security forces are doing everything possible to bring all hostages home as quickly as possible. This news shakes us all,’ says army spokesperson Hagari

Israeli forces discovered the bodies of six hostages in a 65-foot-deep tunnel in Rafah, approximately a kilometer from where hostage Farhan Alkadi was recently freed. The IDF had no precise intelligence on the hostages’ location in recent months but knew there were captives in the sector, leading to a gradual and cautious operation in Rafah since the ground offensive began.

    So you can’t name a single decision made by the Palestinian government that has improved their life over the last 20 years rather making things worse for them?

      That’s irrelevant. Because, as I said, the choices are absolute shit rulers or complete destruction. You are seeming to think I’m arguing Hamas are the good guys here.

      When presented with the choice of destruction by Israel or a horrific theocratic regime, they are making the only choice available.

      Harm Reduction. If Israels goal was to help the Palestinian people, they would be using the carrot rather than the genocidal stick.
