I don't like that there was a stampede. But I'm going to blame the aggressors in the conflict for not preparing for a war they started.
I can confidently say that if Israel stops supporting settlers taking Palestinian homes, killing Palestinians indiscriminately, and no longer enforce apartheid Hamas would observe an end to violent hostilities.
Hamas disagrees with you.
Because that's the standard Hostage taking behavior.
About the Cartels or Hamas?
And what terms do you propose that would be observed by Hamas?
For good reason.
So your argument is that they should just ignore the hostages taken?
I hope so! Looking forward to the writeup at the end!
More accurately though the Hamas faction promised to bring an accurate count of still alive hostages to the negotiations and then reneged on that promise.
That's objectively untrue. Ukraine has like a dozen Gaza's right now. And Sudan is a worse environment where there's multiple simultaneous genocides happening right now.
Hamas vocally disagrees with this.
