Israel has 1900 Palestinians, and yet they claim that they are the good guys...

Fuck Israel

[–] x00z@lemmy.world 17 points 5 months ago

Some of them that have been imprisoned for 20 years.

The last figure i read was 9619. Im not sure where you saw that but im pretty sure it is outdated.

Edit: even the article i read is a year outdated, but it is an israeli source so im sure its still an undercount https://www.btselem.org/statistics/detainees_and_prisoners

Now that we have our chosen ones back, we start bombing again, yay!

[–] Jerb322@lemmy.world 46 points 5 months ago (1 children)

So.....now more bombing? I hope it stops here but I doubt it.

[–] Wispy2891@lemmy.world 6 points 5 months ago

Now that they're almost done with the final solution? They'll "accidentally" drop some bombs on schools/hospitals until a single Hamas member kills a military, then they'll have excuse to continue bombing like before.

[–] Treczoks@lemmy.world 46 points 5 months ago (2 children)

Once the dead hostages are out, too, Israel will bomb Gaza to dust, killing everyone still living there.

they already began the starvation again

I suspect most of the killed hostages fell prey to Israeli bombs, anyway. Hamas probably has no clue about the whereabouts of the corpses because the people who were originally guarding them have been killed, too. That is going to be interesting...

In the end, Israel is just waiting for a "justification" to continue the killing.

So no excuses anymore. You got your POWs back. Any aggression on the people of Gaza is just for your bloodlust (as it has been this whole time). No more hiding their genocidal psychopathic behavior behind false pretenses.

[–] phutatorius@lemmy.zip 5 points 5 months ago

They never had an excuse. They did it because they could.

It's crazy reading reports about how some of these hostages were 'kidnapped from their tanks' with 'other soldiers'.

The war has destroyed large swaths of Gaza and displaced about 90% of its some 2 million residents. It has also triggered other conflicts in the region, sparked worldwide protests and led to allegations of genocide that Israel denies.

[–] phutatorius@lemmy.zip 22 points 5 months ago

So when will the 500,000 Gazan hostages be freed?

[–] AliSaket@mander.xyz 21 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (5 children)

Leaders from all over the world are making a show of it in honor of the reality-TV-star-US-president. They only invite one Palestinian representative (Abbas) from the PA to their talks. The same PA that controls only parts of the West-Bank and is highly unpopular with the Palestinian populace because they are seen as collaborators with the occupation. The "peace" "deal" came about without involvement of Palestinians. Just like 100 years ago, the fate of Palestine is being decided by colonial powers.

All the while, militant groups (if they were fighting against Israel they would be rightfully called terrorists) are continuing Israels's tradition of killing journalists in the strip and are fighting Hamas for control.

Now we don't know which groups these are, but back in June Netanyahu has admitted to backing militant groups in Gaza. Occam's Razor would imply, that these would be among them.

It's good that the bombings have stopped, that humanitarian aid has started to reach a population under a medieval-style siege for so long, offering a bit of - even if incomplete - respite. But I fear for the population once the show in Cairo is over.

EDIT: And no one is looking at the horror that is going on in the West-Bank. Nor is anyone including any points in a "deal".

[–] mrdown@lemmy.world 6 points 5 months ago

PA are collaborators not a single doubt about it

Looking forward to the media showing the story for each of the 2000 released Palestinian hostages

[–] phutatorius@lemmy.zip 5 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

And the two million who are still hostages.
