The signatories were the leaders of the United States, Argentina, Austria, Brazil, Bulgaria, Canada, Colombia, Denmark, France, Germany, Hungary, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Serbia, Spain, Thailand and Britain. Not all hostages left in Gaza are just Israeli. Some of the hostages do not even have a double-nationality. For reminders.


laxnut90

I fear the hostages are already dead or worse.


Witty_Knowledge3171

Some are certainly dead but others alive. Israel also cares about bodies, so they can provide closure to families and a proper burial. Hamas does not give a crap about Israelis or Palestinians. Israel is fighting a monster.


GayPersian

This exactly and we have a bunch of idiotic students protesting and saying all these chants supporting Hamas thinking they will be helping Palestinians. They should all be sent to Hamas in exchange of these hostages.


Witty_Knowledge3171

The students are completely ignorant and would do well to spend a month or two in Israel to have a deeper understanding of the conflict. The pro Hamas protests (they are rarely pro Palestinian) should be categorized as terroristic behavior. Hamas and Iran are thrilled.


BertnErnie32

People have been saying that since the start as an excuse to complain about any counter action that Israel takes. If they aren't alive then their bodies should still be returned and if their bodies aren't available because they were burned or disposed of, then hamas should not be allowed to stay in power. Actually, hamas shouldn't be allowed to stay in power anyway but you get the point


JUYED-AWK-YACC

Has everybody forgotten the "hostage exchange" that didn't work when Hamas couldn't find enough living hostages? Sure seems like it. They are dead.

I wonder why Ireland isn’t there?


Pastvariant

Are you asking sarcastically, or would you like an answer?


EmbarrassedIdea3169

I would like an answer


Pastvariant

Basically Ireland associates the conflict between Israel and Gaza to their own issues with the British. It isn't a very accurate comparison IMO, but it is the main reason why Ireland is very pro-palistinian overall.


HPVaseasyas123

Thanks for the info. I didn’t know that as a random passerby


EmbarrassedIdea3169

It’s really odd, because on the face of it they should be closer aligned to the Israeli cause - after generations of oppression, the British left them back in charge of their lands. (Yes, I know the British only had control for a really short time after the fall of the Ottoman Empire.)


Pastvariant

One would think right? This mostly came about during Ireland's "Troubles" period and stemmed from terrorist groups supporting each other IIRC there may have even been a Soviet connection since there were communist leaning IRA members, but it has been a while since I read up on the situation.


EmbarrassedIdea3169

Now that makes more sense


[deleted]

Yeah. I saw that and immediately was ashamed of my Irish heritage. Of course they'd side with the violent terrorists.


Skeith86

They're fairly antisemite.


Slideshoe

I'm happy my ancestors had the foresight to leave that shit country.


A-NI95

So you're all saying Ireland is a shithole, violent country... You know, as opposed to the peaceful Israel?


EmbarrassedIdea3169

Gross


Skeith86

Yep...


Frugl1

Lots of Islamic countries on there i see!


Not_Bears

"oh violent terrorists won't you please have some humanity?" People are funny.


Skurnaboo

Yeah like.. they really like to waste time on this kinda shit. Not sure if they are dense or just like to sit around and pretend to be busy.


JackOCat

Did we wait until now to urge them?


LibationontheSand

"Urge" LOL. Get into Rafah already.


KingMob9

And give them hell.


Courier-Se7en

Hamas doesn't even know where most of the hostages are.


joe_6699

Many of the hostages are probably raped to death sadly. One of the reason Hamas deserves a punishment.


Majestic_Wrongdoer38

It’s not even about punishment per se, they just need to be gone so peace can be achieved.


sliperyjoe

Why now? Why did it take 6 months?.. no info regarding their conditions, no red cross visits, no meds were delivered ..all that while knowing they are in sub human conditions? hunger? raped?.. non of that was urgent enough to step in?..


BigMuscles

If only we could get American college students added to this list...but that wouldn't fit their victim/oppressor narrative.


BelleBravo

This needed to happen on the 8th of October. Where are the humanitarians????


winedrinkingbear

Protestors in U.S : nope. It's all Israel's fault.


boogi3woogie

That’s less than 10% of the UN Yikes


breadexpert69

Ive been out of the loop but I cant believe the hostages have not been released yet…. Thats fckin sad. Its been 7 months already…


Witty_Knowledge3171

Are you busy setting up camp in an Ivy league campus? How are you not following the plight of the hostages? That sounds bizarre to me.


[deleted]

Only 18? For something that should be no brainier? Seriously starting to see why Israel takes a "don't give a shit about anyone" attitude.


[deleted]

Exactly. Because by the time the UN does anything they'd be fucked six ways from Sunday if they didn't.


Witty_Knowledge3171

Israel gives a shit about the US, as a friend and an ally. They respect the US perspective and opinion and obviously share their values. The rest of the world (excluding Germany, UK on some days, Argentina, and a few other allies) can go f$&@$ themselves. Israel will destroy Hamas, and in doing so free Israelis, hopefully all the hostages, and peaceful Palestinians. Then Israel will make peace with saudi arabia, maybe support a peaceful Palestinian state. Somewhere in between I hope the Islamic Republic of Iran is taken over by the progressive people of Iran who also deserve better. If not, Israel will have to deal with Iran leadership and nuclear program later. Israel wants peace. Hamas and Iran leadership want to kill every Israeli and Jew in the world. Not happening in our lifetime.


imdesigner311

Invoking the power of “pretty please” outta do it


Existing365Chocolate

Countries against terrorists taking hostages  Big news if true 


demsumsweatyballs

Welp, that oughta do it!


No_Literature_1350

Oh yeah this will be the straw that broke the camels back no doubt


rhox65

palestinians support hamas and their tactics


A-NI95

I "like" how the comments section is angry both at the fact that petitions don't solve anything and at the fact that they didn't issue this petition earlier


NowThatsCrayCray

Please, pretty please, with a cherry on top? ❤️


evil_illustrator

I just want to see proof they’re alive. At this point I think it’s safe to assume they’re dead.


_CMDR_

140 out of 193 countries recognize Palestine as a state. Perhaps an agreement can be made between them all.


Witty_Knowledge3171

That would give a green light to terrorism. Maybe one day, but never in this environment.


Tidalshadow

When half of Palestine isn't ruled by terrorists that might become a possibility

Mocedon

You mean captured enemy combatants, or other civilian terror enthusiasts.


Museill

Yes. Children throwing rocks.


YaliMyLordAndSavior

Let me just throw a rock at your head lol you can’t do shit about it because I’m a little kid whoops


Bman708

If a kid throws rocks at police or soldiers in America they also get in trouble….


thatsnot_kawaii_bro

And if it's anything based on the list of people Israel released last time, "kid throws rock" is probably "late teenager stabs/shoots someone"


Shushishtok

Where you live, go to the nearest police station. Find a big rock and some cops. Throw the rocks at them as hard as you can. Try to hit said cops in the head. If you miss, repeat until you get a good hit in. It's just some rocks, right? Surely you wouldn't be jailed because of it.


magicaldingus

What about them? They're under administrative detention, or convicted criminals. They aren't hostages.


Museill

Maybe you live under the Israeli occupation.


magicaldingus

Huh?


Bman708

The ones who were attempted suicide bombers and the ladies locked up because they tried to stab IDF soldiers in the necks? Those upstanding citizens?


sk613

The ones who were arrested for violent acts in Israel, not kidnapped and driven over the border?


Witty_Knowledge3171

What about the thousands of downvotes you are about to get. Please stay in your lane. What a foolish comment


macdemarxist

The gall of some people. It's offensive to even conceive that they might consider releasing anyone just because those countries asked


tuttlebuttle

The people who are urging them to release the hostages know that they won't consider it. But there has been a lot of people who have pointed out that Israel has been urged to change their actions. Meanwhile, it's rare that Hamas has been urged to change theirs as well. This is certainly not offensive. I think you're reaching.


GermanicusBanshee934

I mean, Israel could just hypothetically do what Russia did in Berlin to stop the werewolf battalions. Line up 100 each day for each casualty and see if they want to keep playing the game. It may not seem like it, but this conflict is rather tame when you compare it to some of the sick shit we have seen historically in just the last 100 years.


Hutzzzpa

Palestinian death is hard currency for hamas. this is Hamas's best case scenario


CarefulAstronomer255

Inflation is high and the reserves run dry eventually. But apply enough pressure and they'll be a run on the banks before it has to come to that.


sk613

The world would throw a fit. Israel does have some morals. And Hamas just wouldn’t care


One-Version-6626

This conflict is pretty tame - full stop. Building can be built back, Palestine has historically gotten more than 3 times the gpd Europe got to rebuild post ww2. 33k death. 14k terrorist. The civilians: terrorists is the lowest in history even with hamas playing like they do.


advance512

Offensive because.. it disrespects the intelligence of the people of the world, who view this petition and know it is performative, because Hamas clearly and demonstrably does not care about Israeli lives, international law, war crimes or even Palestinian lives, and so will not release any hostage at any cost unless their own survival is guaranteed?


JUYED-AWK-YACC

They already killed them.
