Jesus knows the Devil will attack Israel therefore we must save them. Eph.6 [12] For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Use bullets to save from the devil walking through the door.
Mother of Israeli hostage mistakenly gunned down by IDF tells soldiers who killed her son 'I love you very much' in stunning show of forgiveness By Andy Jehring and Summer Goodkind 21 Dec 2023 https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/ar...ers-killed-son-love-stunning-forgiveness.html Yotam Haim, 28, was killed after escaping his captors and waving a white flag The mother of an Israeli hostage mistakenly shot dead by the IDF told the soldiers that gunned down her son: 'I love you very much and I embrace you from afar.' Yotam Haim, 28, was killed alongside Alon Shamriz, 26, and Samer El-Talalka, 22, after escaping their captors and waving a white flag. But Mr Haim's mother, Iris, made an emotional voice note to the troops' battalion absolving them of blame and pinning the tragedy on Hamas. She said: 'I wanted to tell you that I love you very much and I embrace you from afar. I know that everything that happened is completely not your fault, it's nobody's fault - except the Hamas, may their name and memory be wiped off the face of the earth.' Mrs Haim urged the soldiers of Bislach Brigade, battalion 17 to 'stay safe' and said that the Jewish people 'need you'.

Gaza war 'most dangerous ever' for journalists, says rights group Reuters December 22, 2023 https://www.reuters.com/world/middl...ver-journalists-says-rights-group-2023-12-21/ [1/4]The camera that belonged to Reuters journalist Issam Abdallah who was killed on October 13 by what a Reuters investigation has found was an Israeli tank crew, is displayed during a press conference by Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch as they released findings from their investigations... JERUSALEM, Dec 21 (Reuters) - The first 10 weeks of the Israel-Gaza war have been the deadliest recorded for journalists, with the most journalists killed in a single year in one location, the U.S.-based Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) said on Thursday. Most of the journalists and media workers killed in the war - 61 out of 68 - were Palestinian. The report said it was "particularly concerned about an apparent pattern of targeting of journalists and their families by the Israeli military." A spokesperson for Israel's military has said the forces don't target journalists. Four Israeli and three Lebanese journalists, including Reuters visuals journalist Issam Abdallah, were also killed between Oct. 7 and Dec. 20, CPJ data showed. The group, a nonprofit organization that promotes press freedom worldwide, said it was further investigating the circumstances of all journalist deaths. It said such efforts in Gaza were hampered by widespread destruction and by the killing of journalists' family members, who typically serve as sources for investigators looking into how the journalists died. Reporting in Gaza has been severely restricted under intense Israeli bombardment, with repeated communications blackouts and a lack of food, fuel and housing, said CPJ, adding that foreign journalists have not been able to independently access the strip for most of the war. "The Israel-Gaza war is the most dangerous situation for journalists we have ever seen, and these figures show that clearly," said Sherif Mansour, CPJ's Middle East and North Africa program coordinator. "The Israeli army has killed more journalists in 10 weeks than any other army or entity has in any single year. And with every journalist killed, the war becomes harder to document and to understand." A May report by CPJ found that Israeli soldiers had killed at least 20 journalists in the last 22 years and none had ever been charged or held accountable. Earlier this month, a Reuters investigation found an Israeli tank crew killed Abdallah and wounded six reporters in Lebanon on Oct. 13 by firing two shells in quick succession from Israel while the journalists were filming cross-border shelling. At least 1,200 people were killed in Israel and 240 were taken hostage on Oct. 7 after Hamas launched a surprise attack, according to Israeli tallies. Gaza health officials say nearly 20,000 Palestinians have since been confirmed killed in Israeli strikes, with thousands more believed lost under rubble.

Dang, such an unlucky year this year with so many 'accidental' killings. Journalist stepping in front of bullets at exactly the wrong time, stupid journalists. Anyhow, that will teach them a lesson for reporting war facts, they're better off reporting about cats and dogs at the agriculture show and who has grown the largest pumpkin this year.
Israel struck some areas it directed civilians to in Gaza, CNN analysis shows By Jake Tacchi, CNN 7 minute read Published 6:06 PM EST, Thu December 21, 2023 https://edition.cnn.com/2023/12/21/...kes-evacuation-zones-gaza-intl-cmd/index.html
BTW -- Hamas has rejected the proposal saying that hostages will only be released if Israel stops the war. Israel will not stop this war until Hamas is completely wiped out in Gaza. There is also the question if any of the hostages are still alive. It appears that Hamas has murdered most of them -- so in reality they have few hostages left for an exchange -- probably not even 40.
Imagine if Hamas spent the aid money on actually helping Palestinian civilians in Gaza rather than building tunnels and buying weapons. Gaza could have been a paradise, Hamas turned it into a form of hell. Israelis find 200-mile labyrinth of tunnels linking homes of Hamas commanders Troops say they found the vast network 260ft under Gaza City https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-news/israelis-find-200-mile-labyrinth-31729189
Yup. Israelis using bunker buster bombs in civilian areas including designated safe areas. 20,000 dead in Gaza and counting on account of Israel. Israel accused of indiscriminate bombing. Gaza has now the dubious record of the most bombed city on record ever. 134 israeli soldiers dead caused by Hamas and friendly fire. Tunnels flooded with seawater by Israel. Widespread forced starvation by Israel. Hospitals and medical non existent. So that means dead hostages were all from Hamas' hands, that makes sense.
New Footage Shows Hamas Hostage Breaking Free and Running Away Only to Be Shot in the Back The security camera video was recorded at the gate of a kibbutz near Gaza on the morning of Oct. 7 Published 12/22/23 09:17 AM ET|Updated 4 hr ago https://themessenger.com/news/hostage-shot-in-back-hamas-terrorists-mefalsim Newly released security camera footage shows Hamas terrorists shooting a woman in the back as she tried to run away from them. The video was taken at the gate of Mefalsim, a kibbutz near Gaza on the morning of Oct. 7. The video shows the Hamas gunman leading the unidentified woman down a road as a Toyota pickup truck drives toward them. The woman then breaks away and starts running, but does not make it far before falling to the ground after she's shot in the back. Documents found on dead terrorists indicate that the militants set out from the start to attack civilian areas like Mefalsim. They are also a testament to the uniquely sophisticated intelligence-gathering for the deadly mission by Hamas. One 14-page “top secret” document in Arabic carefully detailed a plan for infiltrating a small kibbutz near Gaza, and taking residents hostage "for negotiations." Maps and aerial photos of the area were included. The plan warned that the invaders would have to prepare for a response by Israeli forces in as little as three minutes. In fact, it took Israeli soldiers and police hours to reach some of the kibbutzim that suffered the worst of that day's atrocities. Newly released footage shows Hamas terrorists shooting a woman in the back as she tried to run away from them.Handout/X “It shows sophistication, systematic intelligence collection, use of human sources, use of open intelligence sources and information obtained through cyberattacks,” said Eyal Pinko, a former security services officer, of the Hamas plan for Mefalsim. One Hamas terrorist used a victim’s cell phone to contact his parents in Gaza and brag about slaughtering 10 Israeli citizens in the kibbutz. “I’m speaking to you from Kibbutz Mefalsim. Open my WhatsApp now and see all the dead people. Look how many I killed with my own hands, your son killed Jews!"
