“Release the hostages and the fighting stops” is a nice sentiment, but it’s insanely naive. But hey, some people out there still believe Al Shifa hospital was still running just fine. So maybe that’s just par for the course.
So, why don't Hamas release the hostages, if this is the opposite of what Netanyahu wants? They release hostages and, according to you, put Netanyahu in a no-win situation. So, why don't Hamas do it?
