Worth making is the comparison between these protesters in Gaza and the "ceasefire now" activists currently causing chaos in Western streets. One group is in direct danger, yet they are still standing up to demand the right thing while you never hear the pro-Hamas protesters in America even mention the hostages.
"Perhaps the one thing Hamas didn't count on was its inability to command total public support in Gaza. Residents of the embattled territory took to the streets on Wednesday morning to demand their terrorist government release the remaining Israeli hostages taken during the October 7th massacre.
"The protest occurred near a hospital, prompted by anger at Hamas for putting civilians in the position they've been placed in. As has been said many times, the war would end immediately if Hamas simply surrendered and turned over the hostages. Instead, the terrorist group, including its psychotic leader Yahya Sinwar, has burrowed underground, content to prolong the conflict.
This latest act of defiance by Gazans may have been prompted by Hamas refusing yet another ceasefire on Tuesday which would have seen the hostages released and at least a two-month pause in the war.
It's impossible to know how widespread the sentiments shared by the protesters are, and none of the Palestinian "journalists" are going to give an honest account of that. Still, it's a sign that Israel should keep pressing its advantage and not let Hamas survive. So far, around 9,000 fighters for the terrorist government have been killed, and the longer this goes on, the more discontented the actual people in Gaza will become." . . .
"Sinwar and his goons can't be allowed to wield power in Gaza ever again. The situation is complicated, though. Right now, the only thing preventing Sinwar from being turned into mush is that he's surrounded himself with the remaining hostages. That's why Hamas keeps rejecting ceasefire deals in exchange for their release. Perhaps a collapse of internal support can help change that calculus."
