Breaking News - Shiri Bibas has not been returned

ALL of the Israeli hostages are hostages. ALL OF THEM.

There is no equivalence between the hostages and those detained by Israel who are suspected of wrongdoing.

They're not all prisoners accused of crimes though, some are innocent detainees accused of nothing and still being held, there's an actual thread on here about one such person..

That would be amazing, yet even on this board I’ve some impressive mental gymnastics in the last couple of days.
The highlight was the claim by a poster that it’s ‘understandable when people cheer at the sight of their dead tormentors’.
Absolutely mind blowing.

I think for some it will be a tipping point and the pendulum will start to swing back. For those who believe Israel shouldn't exist it won't make a jot of difference. That's the ultimate end point (starting point?) of their whataboutery, that Israel is responsible for the Bibas murders because it exists. Even if most of them won't say it out loud.

The support for Hamas terrorism is beyond the pale. Just yesterday, I had a colleague, in a very professional setting comment on how Israelis hostages are described as hostages in a broadsheet newspaper but Palestinian prisoners are described as prisoners. I have quite enough by this point so I replied, yes because they are prisoners, accused of crimes. And the hostages were ripped from their homes. The world has lost its moral compass. Ghoulish and terrifying scenes in Gaza of civilians glorifying murder and death.

Given the radio silence of the few I know online who really enjoyed having an 'underdog' to preach about...yep.

Do you think possibly this latest atrocity could be a turning point and the scales will fall from the eyes of the Free Palestine supporters?

I don’t believe there are Hamas supporters here. You can say that Israel have lied without supporting Hamas. It is desperately sad that Siri Bibas and her children have died and maybe a day to remember them? They are innocent victims caught up in a hellhole situation.

Exactly.

Confirmed this morning that Shiri Bibas has been returned home .
May her memory be a blessing
. Just a shame that Hamas didnt get it right the first time, I dont think for one second that it was an honest mistake..
At least now Yarden and the whole Bibas family will have some closure even tho it is not the result that anyone wanted.

There is no excuse.

You said maybe Trump had the right idea? I presume you meant about ethnically cleansing Gaza? However I'm glad to see you think it's nonsense

It’s mind boggling, isn’t it?
All that horrible footage from October 7th, recorded and posted by the terrorists themselves, and people still try to somehow explain it away - ‘Oooohhh, no wonder they saw red after all they’ve had to endure!’
What on earth excuses what Hamas and their helpers did on October 7th?

This revelation today has really sickened me.
Outside my train station there's been Palestinian flag waving, leaflet handling well intentioned leftie idiots that seem to be a permanent presence. I've always politely declined, today I felt rage at their stupidity. When one elder gent tried to give me a leaflet I actually shouted "Hamas are murderous bastards" before calmly crossing the road to the bus stop.
Made me feel a bit better.

You remind me of the posters that wanted proof that women and girls were raped on October 7th and wouldn't believe their accounts without proof. Obviously Jewish women just lie.

Its unbelievable isn't it.

So easy to believe terrorists. So difficult to believe Israel. Israel release autopsy but it cannot be trusted. Hamas release anything and its immediately believed.

Even though hamas live streamed October 7th, people still call it resistance. They watch the innocent Palestinian people rejoice at the broken body of Shani Louk, the celebrating around the coffins of dead babies and excuse after excuse.

Look at yourselves. Look deep into yourselves. You are enabling and supporting hamas to keep this hatred going. The marchers too. Useful idiots. You are also not helping the innocent Palestinian people you claim you support

Hi Amadeus,

I haven’t made any reference to ethnic cleansing. I’ve only posted once on this thread as quoted by you above. Perhaps you’re mixing me up with someone else’s post?

My post preceded the latest statement by IDS re their forensic examination.

I’m really sorry if my post upset you. It certainly wasn’t my intention. As you have told me to “cut the crap” which to be honest feels pretty aggressive, I’m going to leave this thread

Apologies, I've posted twice.

No I don't believe in ethnic cleaning, what nonsense are you referring to? Palestinians have said that their mission statement is to get rid of Jews and Infidels. As an Infidel I don't want to be murdered or ethnically cleansed.
It's been proven that the beautiful Bibas children were murdered by someone with their bare hands and even if they'd been killed by an airstrike - which they weren't - Hanas would still be the murderers because they were the ones holding them hostage against their will.
Cut out the crap @EmilyDickinson

To celebrate as they did, in the repulsive handover, knowing that they were deliberately smashing the one possible tiny bit of comfort left to Yarden Bibas, that Ariel and Kfir were with their mum, reveals a psychopathic level of sadism.
