Umm no, the prisoners Israel has that that Hamas wants are mainly from individuals terrorist attacks during cease fires like they were under on Oct 7, not from any of the wars.
Categorically untrue. There is ONE hospital intermittently open, which has no oxygen or anesthesia supplies, due to Israelis targeting medical relief.
I didn’t have to read the whole thing. It uses inflated casualty numbers that have already been debunked. It’s not a genocide.
Israel has captured a huge amount of people during their incursion into Gaza. Of course more were captured during other attacks on Israel and/or settlements.
I don't understand. What does this have to do with the number of Palestinians held in detention by Israel?
once again, bullshit. They are full citizens with the same rights.
Most of the prisoners that Hamas has requested, and they request them individually,are convicted murderers and attempted murders in Israeli prisons, not prisoners of war or those who surrendered . I have no idea what will happen to the surrender as their lives in Gaza are now over has long as Hamas is in power. .
That's an unsupported opinion that matches your agenda. The Palestinians have been subjugated by Israel for 80 years (unless we'd prefer to go back to Joshua fording the Jordan and wiping out the people then living in Jericho). Neither you nor anyone else has countered that with any evidence on this thread--with the evidence that Israel gives no regard to Palestinian civilians (or aid workers--or even hostages trying to be rescued) staring us in the face daily. As far as you can evidence, Palestinians are held in detention forever for jaywalking in Tel Aviv--and for use later in prisoner exchanges.
Random intentional destruction with zero regard for civilians is genocide, whether it is 25,000 casualties or 35,000 casualties. I don't understand why people here are jumping for joy that there are fewer casualties when the collective punishment ratio is still in excess of 10:1 (at least) for each Gazan death to each Israeli death. 7000+ documented child deaths by the UN. Does 7000 child deaths make you happy?
Your blanket statement does not pass the "smell test".
Israel likely won't release high profile prisoners of war.
I was responding to why the prisoner exchanges are so high Palestinians to Israelis.
That's just your opinion. I've heard directly from Palestinians, including ones who were working in Israel, that they could be thrown into detention for jaywalking in Tel Aviv. This is exactly consistent with being subjugated as less than human for eighty years.
If Israel wanted to get rid of the Gazans, they would be long gone.
That Israeli sends humanitarian aid to Gaza, that they move them from battle areas, set up field hospitals, bring supplies to hospitals, this is more than any other army fighting a war has every done.
They released Sinwar before and they did release high profile prisoners, not prisioner a of war a in the past exchange. So far Hamas has only wanted convicted felons in Israeli prisons and have expressed no interest in prisoners of war. They will get those back after the war anyway so not much point in exchanging hostages or hostage bodies for pows.
OK, that establishes what you are willing to say you believe.
And they are willing to starve and slaughter other Palestinians to get there. Palestinians aren't fully human to them. You and others refuse to address that. That isn't opinion or theory. It's what's happening.
Right, thanks. I caught that on a reread and corrected it.
i don't think anyone here has argued against that; rather, we all agree on that pointThe Hamasanimalsreally should never have conducted their 10/7 rape, torture, murder, and kidnapping operation.
And the Hamasanimalsshould really surrender and release the hostages.
The Israelis have taken greater care with Palestinian lives than Hamas itself.
That's your unsupported opinion. I think neither takes care of the Palestinian civilians. That doesn't excuse the Israelis for what we all can watch what they are doing.
