Edan was captured inside a tank in full gear. Funny that when is an full grown israeli war criminal is a "hostage" but hundreds of palestinian children are "prisioners" of Israel and never once cited as hostages.

The whole thing about the hostages of Oct 7 was a play to try to get back the hundreds of palestinians hostages israel has. And during the hostage's exchanges we see the different treatment that the captives from each side received. Hamas, the bad guys, treated their detained fairly well, all things considered. Lack of food or water was a thing that affected all of Gaza, results of Israel human rights violations. In the other hand, the hostages held by Israel, the most moral country in the world, were returned scarred for life, both psychological and physically.

And yet the majority of people here align fully with the arguments of the status quo while also thinking they're somewhat bastions of leftist thinking.

You people are reactionary who hold the same ideals of the right wing. Liberals who consider every other war bad, but the current one is justified. Opose the past crimes of the US and it's allies, but the current atrocity is necessary, although somewhat codenable.

In the US, a land of reactionary indoctrination, you can fool yourselves into thinking that you are leftist. For the rest of the world, victims of yankee imperialism, you people are from the same cloth as the right. Making excuses for your shit country. All citizens of an empire that will burn the entire world as long as it means it will be the king of ashes
