For the liberals who think it it doesn’t matter he claims Israeli captives are being tortured while not even mentioning the same for the Palestinians in extermination camps: your medicare won’t matter to him either. Stop torturing billionaires.

Palestine is the ultimate litmus test.

I might be missing something, but it reads like he's saying "Israeli hostages" as in "hostages taken by Israel" based on how he mentions families returning to rubble in Gaza.

    I'm reading it that way, too. It's unfortunate wording, but if you read past the first statement, he's clearly discussing the attacks on Palestine by Israel. Immediately after that opening, Zohran writes "Relentless Israeli bombardment of Palestinians"; using "Israeli" to mean {enacted by Israel}. I'm going to go with the best and say that Zohran writing "Israeli hostages" means {hostages Israel held} and not {hostages from Israel}.
