Hersh Goldberg-Polin, 23. Originally from California, Goldberg-Polin immigrated to Israel with his family as a young child. He was taken at gunpoint by Hamas militants while at the Nova music festival.
In August his parents spoke at the Democratic party convention, where they were greeted by a crowd that chanted: “Bring them home.”
Eden Yerushalmi was in contact with the police and with her sisters after the attack. ‘They’ve caught me,’ were her last words to them.
Carmel Gat had been staying with her parents in kibbutz Be’eri on 7 October, one of the communities hardest hit by the attack. Hamas fighters broke into their home and kidnapped her; her mother was killed in the attack.
Alexander Lobanov’s five-month-old son was born while he was in captivity.
Almog Sarusi was taken hostage as his girlfriend, who was shot, succumbed to her injuries.
Ori Danino had been helping others try to escape when he was abducted.
Oh, these killed by the Israeli air strikes? Along tens of thousands of Palestinians?
No, the hostages were murdered by Hamas. They were not killed by Israeli air strikes.
Hamas blames Israeli airstrikes for death of six hostages in Gaza
Are you really taking the word of Hamas, who kidnapped the people to begin with? The air raids killed the hostages in an underground tunnel? Yeah, okay.
If Hamas was concerned about the lives of the hostages they could have released them. Propaganda at best.
Yes, when tons of explosives are dropped on Gaza, I take the word of Hamas that explosives killed hostages. Especially when other hostages were returned. Hamas gains nothing from their deaths.
You are suggesting that Hamas hasn’t murdered any of the hostages. Are you being serious?
I am suggesting that they didn’t murder these ones.
Why? They have murdered hostages before, so there goes the personal gain theory.
You’re clearly an antagonizer. Some mute people they don’t like. I don’t because I want to know how much shit you spread. I’ll no longer engage.
