The Israeli army announced the conclusions of its investigation into the deaths of Cpl. Nik Beizer, Sgt. Ron Sherman and Elia Toledano, who were kidnapped in Hamas’ Oct. 7 attack. Their bodies were recovered in December, but the cause of death was only recently determined.

    I honestly won’t be surprised if IDF killed more Israeli hostages than Hamas…

    Kind of the whole point of hostages was so Israel wouldn’t just flatten Gaza because Israel wouldn’t know where hostages were.

    Except Israel cares more about killing Palestinians than they do saving Israelis. So they just flattened everything anyways

      Or maybe Israel is afraid anyone who spends enough time in Gaza will realize Israel are baddies too. Or maybe they expanded the Hannibal Directive to include post-capture hostages as well.

    Ah… well. You know the old saying, you can’t make a genocide without killing a few hostages.
