Hamas murdered and kidnapped Americans. President Biden should be invading Gaza.
Why is our President giving Hamas what they want? Why aren't AMERICAN missiles attacking Hamas in retaliation for their killing of Americans?
Hamas must be destroyed. Period. These scum have always used innocent people - most of all their “own” slave subjects in Gaza - as valueless pawns to achieve their evil aims. Americans need to know the names Abigail Edan, Roy Edan and Smadar Edan. Abigail is 4 years old and was held hostage in Gaza after seeing her parents Roy and Smadar murdered on October 7th. They are all Americans. Why aren’t American troops demolishing Gaza right now, demanding the surrender of Hamas and the release of all remaining hostages?
I have pasted in toto the WSJ editorial today, Hamas Holds Everyone Hostage:
The terrorists traffic in human beings to achieve their bloody aims.
The civilized world is rejoicing at the release of hostages by Hamas, especially the sight of young children reunited with parents after seven weeks of hell. But that relief shouldn’t blind us to the way the jihadists are manipulating human sentiment to achieve their terrorist aims.
The killers are releasing a dozen or so hostages each day in return for three times the number of Palestinians released by Israel. Hamas snatched innocent Israelis and others in a deliberate act of terror. The released Palestinians were arrested or convicted of crimes under the law.
Now Hamas is using the hostages to play on Western respect for human life. Hamas knows its strategy is dividing Israeli opinion between those who prioritize the release of the hostages and those who want Hamas defeated so it can never again slaughter 1,200 people.
Hamas is also manipulating the world, including the Biden Administration. President Biden said Sunday he hopes the initial four-day military truce can be extended so more hostages will be released. That includes the unknown number of Americans held in who-knows-what condition underground. Hamas released the first U.S. hostage on Sunday, a 4-year-old American-Israeli girl, Abigail Edan, whose parents were murdered in front of her.
But every day the truce lasts the more time the jihadists have to regroup, slip out of Gaza, rearm, or plan more ambushes against Israelis. And the longer it lasts the more odds increase of an extended cease-fire, which is what Hamas really wants. The onus will fall on Israel to end the truce, though Hamas is unlikely ever to release all hostages, who are its only source of leverage.
This is a terrible choice that Hamas doesn’t have to make because it considers civilians, including Palestinians, to be expendable weapons of war. That’s why it hides in hospitals, schools and mosques—and kidnaps women and children to serve its murderous ends.
Enough of this insanity of allowing an evil aggressor the right to dictate how this war will end. Did the Allies have ceasefires once the Nazi Blitz was rebuffed, and good men landed at great sacrifice on Normandy? Did anyone whine about “humanitarian aid” for the children of Nazis while the Allies pressed towards Berlin?
Real leadership would be to say to Hamas: The ONLY way the civilized world will continue this ceasefire another hour is for you to bring ALL the hostages to safety right now. No swapping innocent victims for evil murdering prisoners who have been convicted of crimes. Nope. Give us all the hostages right now or die.
Americans were murdered by these scum, and Americans are still being held hostage in Gaza. Call your President and tell him to punish those who attacked our citizens.
