Yeah, I'm sure what these people expect. Either they are explicitly supporting attacks on civilians and hostage taking as a fine way of warfare, or they are deluded as hell that either side will stop. Hamas could at any time end the war, but they'd rather use innocent Palestinian lives as a shield.

And for what? To try to get a bunch of their hamas friend terrorists released? It's pretty clear where hamas' values lay, and it's not with the Palestinian people. In fact, this whole thing happened precisely because this hostage tactic worked previously. That's how the current leader of hamas was freed in the first place.

I'm 100% Isreal minimizing civilian Palestinian damage, and I think they need to do way better, but I also want to see hamas and their ilk shutdown.
