He should probably plead with his own fucking government to stop committing genocide if he wants any reasonable outcome for this.

Also "complex operation" sounds like "we killed a bunch of children for no reason while 'rescuing him' from folks probably treating him better than the Israeli government treats its own hostages (by fucking murdering them in most of these situations)."

He knows.

"Every day he was sure was his last day, and not only because of his captors, but also because of the shelling of the army. He said that every day is a life-threatening situation."

and not only because of his captors

His 'captors' are not the party responsible, I am not criticizing him I am pointing out the framing of this article.

If he wanted to not be held captive by a morally justified liberation army he coulda just stopped being a settler/colonizer.

Nobody that is an adult Israel citizen is innocent. They either side with the resistance or get the fuck out.

Truth!

Let alone how they have mandatory service at 18. They all have blood on their hands, I don't cry at all when I hear about their deaths, they've been dehumanizing an entire ethnic group for ~100 years, why should I care when there's finally resistance?

honestly I don't even know why we are federated with this instance. BrikoX is at best a kind of left lib, and at worst a fence sitting asshole, and I really don't have much time for the latter.
