New Hamas video of hostages

The new Hamas video released today of the female hostages selected as the ones they planned to get pregnant was so sickening and I wish I hadn’t seen it.

however, I am also wondering WHY it has not been more widely picked up and broadcast? I don’t understand the silence from the bleeding left; why don’t they see stuff like this and not just feel desperate and sick about those poor poor girls and their families who must be beyond devastated.

Watching the men in those videos helps to counter balance the idea of Israel as the aggressor. I wish more would see it and reflect or even just place those women of equal value to those in Gaza.

How is the world so perverse right now that this warrants a shrug from so many? Or worse, is viewed as justified !?

I'm assuming you're referring to the video of the young women assaulted and taken hostage from the observer station, which was just released?

If so, yes, I've seen it.

Those brave young women must be returned home. They and all the other hostages are in my thoughts and every day I hope for progress to be made for their safe return.

Those cowardly, inadequate thugs with guns, brutalising and killing women, are scum and should face justice for their actions. I believe that, even if some may escape justice in this life, they will face justice when they die.

Can I ask whether you also don’t look at any footage about Gaza?

I am surprised you say you’ve seen it reported everywhere, can you give me an example of where you’ve seen it? The bbc headlines don’t seem to cover it, the only one I see today is about Ireland, Spain, Norway (which appears to be confirming that Hamas tactics were effective!?)

Not one, I'm not on twitter etc so just what comes on the BBC/C4/ Irish news channels.

I've seen the story on news apps BBC C4 dailymail.
Sunak has just announced a general election so no doubt that will remove everything else from the headlines

I do wonder if those marching would feel the same after watching the footage.

Surely if barbaric videos changed people's opinions there would be no pro Israeli posters left .

However it is a Horrific video I fully condemn those responsible for the torture the women are going through.

It is just so terrible and needs to be viewed by everyone marching against Israel. Let them see the barbarity committed by the heinous Hamas.

I have seen it reported on from most news outlets. I haven't watched it because I haven't watched any of the videos from the conflict just not able.

Who are you referring to as the bleeding left? As in who isn't reporting it that you think should be? I don't know anyone that would not be sick or devastated for those girls, no victim is deserving of that treatment and I wouldn't have any time for anyone that would think they are.

It’s truly horrific. I hope to God those girls are released/rescued.

The problem is, by now they’ll be heavily pregnant, and if they survive child birth in those conditions, who knows if Hamas won’t dispose of them once the babies are born. And even if they do make it out alive, how does one ever recover from this!? And what of those poor poor babies likely torn from their mothers and bred to be the future murderers who will go on to kill their own brothers and sisters in decades to come. It’s truly biblical.

The girls in the video are even pleading with Hamas in English and yet it won’t be enough to resonate for so many in the western world. I just don’t understand it.

It’s viewed as justified, let’s call a spade a spade, their race means no one cares enough! I’m deeply saddened by how ignored this is by the masses

I agree with you Muthaofcats why is it not deemed of wider broadcast?
