DC 3.54pm / Tel Aviv 10.54pm
Largest protest in Tel Aviv since start of war, chant ‘Bibi [Netanyahu] resign, Bibi is murderer’.
The biggest pro-Palestinian march in U.S. history
Critical timing for Biden
Due to continuous bombing by Israel, 60 hostages were killed including 23 whose bodies are under rubble, and we were not able to retrieve. Israeli IDF killing Israeli and other citizenship [hostages]
Just a reminder that the IDF launched a ground invasion [saturday, 7 days ago] just on the night [7.50pm local time] when talks over prisoner swap were in an advanced stage.
Talks on prisoner swaps were in the advance stage but Israel went up on the escalation ladder last night. It is safe to say that Israel is not interested in rescuing the hostages, especially the military personnel who could reveal about massive failures of 7th of October.
Israel was driven by rage, not strategy. Hamas taking hostages in the first place was a clear sign that they wanted a prisoner exchange, which could have led to dialogue on broader issues as well.
I know a lot of high-ranking media, such as New York Times, Guardian, Anadolu, BILD, Spiegel, Financial Times, Strait Times, Washington Post etc subscribed my substack. Plestia ‘Bosbos’ Alaqad ready to be your Stringer inside Gaza under bombing by Israel. Plestiaa2011@gmail.com
Toddler with Plestia, before war, living in Northern Gaza and they evacuated to Southern Gaza. Since Friday, Oct 13, when Israel announced to every Gazans from northern move to southern, more than 5,000 killed in southern, not counting barbaric bombing in northern Gaza. Northern Gaza is being depopulated, while even residents in the south are ordered to evacuate as the israelis implement their ethnic cleansing. Refugee literally fulfilled Israel warning, and still killed with barbaric bombing by Israel. Documentation by Plestia Alaqad

What about the murders by Hamas? How would that part of it lead to any talks? And Hamas is a terror organization. No one is going to engage in negotiations with a terrorist group. They don’t represent Palestine. They can’t do anything for the Palestinian people.
Yes Netanyahu has handled the attack by Hamas terribly. Netanyahu is no better than Hamas. Neither is going to bring peace talks to the table nor do they want to. It the biggest quagmire I’ve ever seen. And let’s lay blame where blame is. Hamas needs to go and Netanyahu impeached or whatever they do to remove a leader there.
You always overlook the fact that Hamas started this which was their intention.
New leadership all around.
