I will remind you again- Hamas does not get to make deals— Netanyahu is correct, Hamas wants to exchange hostages for prisoners with blood on their hands.
Hamas does not get to make deals— Both the UN and the ICJ clearly called for the “immediate and unconditional release of all Israeli hostages” months ago.— Do you know the definition of “immediate and unconditional”?
Hamas has had 6 months to lay down their arms and to release all the hostages to put an end to what they have initiated. Until then, they leave Israel no choice but to continue to prosecute this war.
Article 147 of the 1949 Geneva Convention IV identifies hostage-taking as a “grave breach”, a status that imposes obligations to provide effective penal sanctions for the offense and to search for and prosecute offenders- (Article 146)
