I don’t think so. The hostages they’ve released so far are either dual citizens of Israel and another country, or they’re just too old to keep as hostages like these two. Then there’s the fact that these hostages keep fucking up the Israeli narrative that all the hostages are being tortured (or whatever evil shit theyre projecting onto Hamas) by saying they were treated very well.

Highly optimistic but I hope so too

Supposedly Qatar has been mediating and is promising a breakthrough “soon”.

Once again the truth is inverted, Israel does want to kill as many Arabs as possible.

There’s a reason why when Israel says anything internationally they keep saying that if not for them you’d have another Arab government; Where’s the incentive for Arabs to go along with this? Why would they hear this and think “Yeah, I don’t want another Arab government either!”, unless of course Arabs have no place in these ‘international’ discussions, which is very concerning considering they’re talking about their actual neighbors (and the captives in their open air prison); Arabs who see discussions taking place like this with no ‘international’ pushback against Israel setting the discourse like this should be very concerned. They’re being treated like savage natives instead of people who are supposed to be part of the ‘international’ community with an equal voice and equal participation. Any ‘international’ organization that behaves like this is not an international organization, and the people being talked about are being treated as local fauna.
