Israel completely dominated the Hamas-Palestians.
This might be an issue we could agree on.
But Jim, how many months did Biden have to solve this?
And Jim, would you agree that Elon Musk had the greatest advice on this?
Hamas & Hezbollah usually damand hundreds of prisoners released for each hostage they've taken in the past.past. they got hundreds released this time as well.
Of course, this exchange rate was once again determined by Hamas. They could have stopped the carnage by first leaving the peace undisturbed and not killing children in their homes, and later by releasing the hostages. But, one of their now dead leaders was quoted as saying the Gazans were taking acceptable losses. He felt the deaths of Gazans (not Palestinians, who live elsewhere) would be good leverage against Israel. Obviously he misjudged the situation, but that doesn't change the fact that he was fine sacrificing the lives of his supporters and constituents.
The weird thing is that we, the West, including Israel, value the lives of the Gazans more than Hamas does.

I wish I could say I am surprised.
This feels like the "They were provoked" argument. 68K dead Palestinians, how many were de facto Hamas?
