    If American history serves me right people will be paranoid over whatever they’re told to be paranoid.

    She’s actually more likely to be killed by a pro-palestine protester given how emotionally unstable the Hamas propaganda is making them. She’s already being harassed in the streets by them.

        You first. You’re getting paranoid about the evil Jews assassinating a US politician.

        If you don’t think the internet makes people emotionally unstable and you don’t think emotionally unstable people do crazy things, it may be because the internet has put you into an emotionally unstable state. Go outside and touch grass. Eventually Hamas will be forced to release the hostages one way or another and the death will stop. Civilian casualties in a war should be upsetting but understand there isn’t anything you can do about it. Falsely claiming genocide and trying to make a war drag on longer by cutting off supplies only makes things worse. It’s not going to end until the hostages are freed.

            Yeah Hamas are psychopaths so they wouldn’t have any qualms about murdering hostages. But also they’re psychopaths and whatever they might say about wanting to be martyrs is just lies. A psychopaths will prioritize their own self preservation over anything else. Obviosuly they’re willing to put the Palestinian people at the mercy of an army they claim to be committing genocide while they hide underground like cowards.

            But it’s possible they could release the hostages and make an exit through Egypt and survive. The question is how many Palestinian civilians they can let die (civilian deaths is a big money maker for them) before they make their escape to Qatar to live a life of luxury. It’s important to put a lot of pressure on Rafah by making it clear that the IDF is willing to fight in Rafah to force them into running away. The leadership of Hamas are cowards we know this by their actions so far. A strong showing of support for Israel will reveal the nature of Hamas (if October 7 didn’t already) and could result in a long term peace. But the effectiveness of Hamas’ propaganda on the west makes it more likely Hamas will continue their psychotic ways and this conflict will go on for another generation.
