Feel like once the hostages are handed over Israel will start bombing again

It seems too good to be true, a final end to the war.

After all the plans that were announced with regards to annexation and the Israeli far-right government members, I can’t help but feel that once all of the hostages are released Israel will go ham on Gaza.

There will be nothing to stop them bombing everywhere.

No hostages to avoid bombing.

No families pleading with the Israeli ministers.

Israel has broken so many ceasefires and this was with the hostages lives at stake.

I don’t know, but I can’t celebrate with everyone as I don’t believe it will last and my heart says that’s it’s going to get worse.

"Hamas militias stormed the tent of a displaced man, dragged him into the street in front of people, shot him in the legs."

Which is horrific which is why I wanted more information on it as it is a massive concern if innocent civilians are left vulnerable to Hamas militants and other armed gangs and why, if this was truly a peace agreement, there should be peace keeping troops in Gaza protecting civilians and stabilising the strip now that law and order has completely broken down and the population is displaced traumatised, starved and dead. Hard to know what's happening through insta links.

So have you read in the news today about the fighting amongst the Palestinians?! Fighting broke out in one of the areas between Hamas and another family clan, leaving 50 people dead.
The place is a tinder box, amongst the Palestinians, and between them and the Israelis

I despise Trump. But he really wants his Nobel prize. So maybe he’ll keep up the pressure for this to hold.

I get the feeling people are inching closer and closer to saying 'someone needs to go into Gaza and sort out Hamas'.

I wonder if our disgrace of a PM, as well as Macron and Carney, still support and recognise a Palestinian State now they can clearly see what that means, now the IDF has withdrawn and Hamas are killing anybody who might potentially support or lead the rebuilding of Gaza as a peaceful, independent State?

I cannot express how embarrassed I am by Kier Starmer

If innocent civilians are 'left vulnerable'?! I mean make up your mind. I thought everyone wanted Israel out? Have we not been telling you for years that Palestinisn civilians are vulnerable to Hamas? Yet we are told only Palestinians can govern Palestinians? Do you not think crushing dissent was always Hamas's modus operandi?

Gotta say, I missed the marches for peacekeepers to go in and save Palestinians from Hamas. But do let us know when thr next one is.

Make it make some fucking sense.

69% reporting having experienced sexual violence and abuse

Save the Children reporting the same statistics in July 2023;

and 69% strip-searched, according to new research

Some report violence of a sexual nature...

https://www.savethechildren.net/news/stripped-beaten-and-blindfolded-new-research-reveals-ongoing-violence-and-abuse-palestinian

OK, let’s break this down.

The 69% in the article relates to being strip searched. Sadly this would probably be a policy due to the IDF’s experience of Palestinian suicide bombings or concealing knives or objects they could use as weapons. I would say it’s a necessary policy actually to protect themselves as well as the soldiers dealing with them.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Use_of_child_suicide_bombers_by_Palestinian_militant_groups

Even more sadly there seems to be a long standing ‘culture’ among some Palestinians to brainwash children to hate Jews and want to kill them. Plenty of videos available if you want to look to get a fuller picture.

The other ‘sexual abuse’ abuse reported is touching of the genitals according to the article.

It’s not uncommon for someone detained or arrested on suspicion of a crime to be patted down before being strip searched. Could that have been construed as sexual abuse or is there proof of actual sexual abuse?

These were mainly boys and the youngest Palestinian detained for administrative detention by Israel is 14.

Are we to assume then that there is an anomaly in Israeli society in that there are lots of IDF soldiers, Israeli police and prison staff who are pedophiles, who like to touch young boys and this goes on without anyone caring because they don’t see a problem with it?

Classic blood libel, seeing as most of those people will be Jews.

On the same path as the IDF are all baby killing monsters.

The youngest child imprisoned was a 12 year old girl who was convicted of an attempted stabbing.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimaal-Wawi

If children of that age are able to go out equipped with knives with the intention to stab someone, they are old enough to face the consequences IMO.

Not quite the image of innocent children being held hostage by Israel that some want to convey,

Hamas is executing Palestinians. Not Israel. Apparently they ‘helped Israel’ in the war. 🙄
The only people starving in Gaza were the Israeli hostages.
Every bit of food sent into that God-forsaken hell hole was seized by Hamas; they controlled the distribution ( mainly to their own fat and well fed colleagues).

If the cease fire does not hold it will be 100% the fault of Hamas or its fellow agents of destruction.

The idiotic governments pledging to ‘rebuild Gaza’ are the ‘useful fools’ as the Islamists like to call them. The network of terror tunnels was built from the millions of aid packages and they will just enable Hamas to replace them.
Hamas is a death cult. They are killing citizens on the streets and started as soon as the ceasefire was agreed.
Have you seen the size of the fences on the borders?? Other Arab nations want nothing to do with ‘Palestine’.

Yep and who’s going to run Gaza if potential opposition leaders are being executed by Hamas?

I’d hazard a guess it will be Hamas.

Hamas who have been very open that they need the blood of Palestinians to fuel their cause to annihilate Israel.

I wonder what that means?

Well let's face it there is a long standing culture amongst some Israelis to call for the death of Palestinians, to actually murder them, burn them out of their homes, laugh and make up vile chants about the deaths of children at their hands. They host rapists on national tv and give them standing ovations, their democratically elected lawmakers call the rape of prisoners legitimate and they riot outside prisons for the release of rape suspects.

Unfortunately Israeli children are brainwashed into an ideology that’s very function is to demonise Palestinians and this allows them to carry out the atrocities that we have seen over the past number of decades once they reach adulthood and join the IDF. There are numerous videos of these atrocities and testimonies from the people carrying them out if you care to find them.

When we can see with our own eyes rapists lauded on TV, elected representatives saying that rape is legitimate, Israeli citizens rioting for the release of rapists, Israeli citizens including radicalised Israeli children marching up and down Palestinian streets calling for their deaths, 4 violent Israeli terrorist attacks against Palestinians every single day, a gang rape carried out by multiple Israelis on a Palestinian prisoner why would we assume that the sexual assault of children would be a step too far and that the victims are the liars not the people responsible for the deaths of 20000 children, the people marching up and down the streets calling for their deaths and violently attacking them every single day.

HotTiredDog · 13/10/2025 22:36

Sorry to be a cynic, but when it comes to Netanyahu I’m afraid I can’t believe a word he says - and Trump is pretty similar in my book. Both are driven by ego, personal power & money.
I hope for sake of the Palestinian people that I am wrong.

You're describing fringe elements of Israeli society. The IDF are made up mainly of conscripts, ie normal young people from the full cross section of society.
So yes you are kind of calling the majority of Israelis paedophiles.

In reality, detainees are strip searched and cavity searched for the very obvious reason of concealed explosives and weapons.

Like I said Israelis elected someone who has said the rape of detainees is legitimate. Israelis have rioted for the release of rape suspects. Israelis have lauded a rapist on TV after seeing a video of him violently gang raping a man. These are facts, things that have happened in Israeli society. They have shown us and told us that they don't have a problem with the rape of detainees. The video we saw of violent Israelis gang raping a Palestinian was not a cavity search. People were not protesting for the right to cavity search Palestinians they were protesting for gang rapists to be freed.

And a poster here called victims of child sexual abuse radicalised liars and jew haters. Not a single person called her out for that. Mumsnet have said it is fine to do that so I see no problem at all with saying what I said and what we can all see and that is Israelis lauding rape on TV, Israelis trying to free rapists and Israelis calling the rape of Palestinians in detention legitimate.

What I said is true you can believe me or not but I'm not doing the work for people anymore. I'm making statements and if others don't like them they are free to challenge them as mumsnet themselves would say.

I will say it again a democratically elected Israeli lawmaker thinks that the rape of Palestinian detainees is legitimate. An Israeli rapist was brought on Israeli national TV lauded and given multiple standing ovations. Israelis protested outside a prison for the release of rapists. Israelis and their children take to the streets and call for the death of Arabs. 69% of Palestinian children are sexually assaulted in prison.
