In the light of the news that Israel may be releasing 150, erm, “hostages” in return for the release of 50 Israeli (actual) hostages, Kay Burley of Sky News may have been responsible for a potential space catastrophe by asking :
If Israel acted against the arabs the way the arabs - especially palestinian ones - have always acted against jews, Gaza would be a parking lot by now.
It's shameful to see how many who uses the palestinian arabs relentless campaign of terror and murder and rape as a safe vent for their hatred of jews.
There's plenty to criticise Israel for - allowing US-backed settlers to steal land f.e. - but one can do that without defending Hamas or rationalising their systemic and genocidal campaigns.
Also, consider this: how many millions of german civilians died from british and american bombing campaigns targetting cities? How many civilian serbs died from US bombs? How many arabs in Irak? How many afghan civilians did the US kill?
If Israel is to be critisised because the civilians Hamas hide behind die, are not the US and Britain also guilty of the same?
To the jew-hating general Left, Right and Centre - that's completely different, apparently.
My reaction to that ignorant remark was exactly the same...WHAT THE FUCK?? She must have really flipped her fucking mind when Israel released 1027 prisoners in exchange for just one, Gilad Shalit. And that decision is biting Israel in the ass to this day. Yehya Sinwar was one of those prisoners released on October 18, 2011.
Yehya Sinwar is the mastermind behind the terrorist attack on October 7, 2023, when countless fighters of the militant group Hamas crossed the border from the Gaza Strip into Israel, killing more than 1,200 people and abducting around 240. The most senior Hamas leader in the Gaza Strip is currently one of Israel's most wanted men.
Yeah...exchanging violent prisoners for INNOCENT HOSTAGES isn't always a great idea.
I'm checking this out to see if it's true about the release of this hostage:

So you’re telling me that the great-aunt of the youngest American hostage — and first American — to be released by Hamas is a buyer of Hunter Biden’s art, who was then appointed by Joe Biden to the U.S. Commission for the Preservation of America’s Heritage Abroad?
That buyer, Insider can reveal, is Elizabeth Hirsh Naftali, a Los Angeles real-estate investor and philanthropist. Hirsh Naftali is influential in California Democratic circles and a significant Democratic donor who has given $13,414 to the Biden campaign and $29,700 to the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee this year. In 2022, she hosted a fundraiser headlined by Vice President Kamala Harris.
Insider also obtained internal documents from Hunter Biden’s gallery showing that a single buyer purchased $875,000 worth of his art. The documents do not indicate the buyer’s identity, which is also unknown to Insider at this time.

Don’t know this woman but she’s an asshole.
I honestly didn’t understand what the question was implying until he responded. I am too naive. Wow.
I hope the Israelis are sensible of the esteem Hamas is showing them by releasing so few.
