Hostages

The Palestinian "prisoners" that Hamas took Israli hostages to trade for were only ever identified as criminals by Isreal.

This was always about negotiating for Palestinian hostages in exchange for Israli ones.

It's so fucning insane that Isreal wants to kill its own hostages, as well as the Israli hostages that were taken. We know this because the IDF has "accidentally" killed multiple of the kidnapped Israli citizens.
