American Edan Alexander still held by Fakestinians in Gaza
President Trump has talked tough; he needs to translate that into action. The Fakestinians have shown the world they are a poisoned "society" devoid of any shred of morality or basic human decency.
There is a 20-year-old American named Edan Alexander who's still held hostage by Hamas in Gaza for over 540 days, and the American media is awfully silent about him.
Never stop talking about #EdanAlexander. Call your Congresspeople and Senators and call the White House.
This is the coverage from the Jerusalem Post on 7 March 2025:
Edan Alexander suffering torture, interrogations, starvation in captivity - N12
The released hostages added that Alexander, a soldier who was kidnapped in IDF uniform, was treated much more harshly by his captors than civilian hostages.

Recently released hostages conveyed a sign of life from American-Israeli hostage Edan Alexander, as well as alarming information about the conditions of his captivity, N12 revealed for the first time on Thursday night.
According to their testimonies, which have been passed on to his family, Alexander is being held in an underground tunnel without air or sunlight and is severely malnourished and underweight due to a lack of food.
The released hostages added that Alexander, a soldier who was kidnapped in IDF uniform, was treated much more harshly by his captors than civilian hostages. He has reportedly been severely interrogated and tortured.
Alexander was also handcuffed for almost all of his captivity, N12 continued.
However, the released hostages also revealed that Alexander apparently exhibited continual mental strength and cared for his well-being and that of fellow captives.
"Edan Alexander is very important to us. He is wounded, and he is a top priority. I hope we see good behavior [from Hamas] next week and that I can get there (to Qatar) and have good talks," Witkoff said.
Thanks for keeping his name front-and-center.
I'm frustrated by the way the news always describes these American hostages as "Israeli-American" in a way that I feel makes them seem, somehow, less American. All I ever hear on the news are names like Brittney Griner, Luigi Mangione, Mahmood Kahlil. But, I never hear the names of these American hostages.
I'm also frustrated that our country, even under President Trump's leadership, doesn't seem to be willing to put boots on the ground to bring them home. I know we're backing Israel in many ways, but taking any American hostage needs to be deterred.
Thanks for keeping spotlight on hostages. And for your forceful moral compass!
