Family confirms death of Israeli-American hostage Hersh Goldberg-Polin
Tens of thousands of grieving and angry Israelis surged into the streets as they demanded that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reach a cease-fire with Hamas.
The family of Israeli-American hostage Hersh Goldberg-Polin announced the young man’s death early Sunday, ending a relentless campaign by his parents to rescue him that included meetings with world leaders and an address to the Democratic convention last month.
Goldberg-Polin, 23, was seized by militants at a music festival in southern Israel on Oct. 7. The native of Berkeley, California, lost part of his left arm to a grenade in the attack. In April, a Hamas-issued video showed him, his left hand missing and clearly speaking under duress, sparking new protests in Israel urging the government to do more to secure his and others’ freedom.
Did israel gas them to death in tunnels like they did for the previous ones?
IDF Says Unclear How Three Hostages in Gaza Died, but They May Have Been Poisoned or Suffocated
Edit:
Hamas blames Israeli airstrikes for death of six hostages in Gaza
6 hostages’ bodies were rescued by IDF. Signs show they were killed in the past week by Hammas in a tunnel.
What makes you say it's Hamas that killed them? The pattern is usually the IDF killing them, with the exception of the one incident where the IDF killed a hostage taker's family.
Well that's depressing =(
I like how “American citizen” killed is very critical to wash the genocide. Media will care if you are American Citizen only if you help their agenda. I still remember how they ignored the murder of Shireen Abu Akleh
Hamas kidnapped Hersh Goldberg-Polin, among other non-combatants, on the 7th of October. As captors, Hamas were at a minimum responsible for keeping the hostages alive. Hamas could have chosen to release the non-combatants at any point but choose not to.
This not about Israel being or not being assholes. This is about Hamas not even taking a minimum of responsibility for what they have caused.
Hamas does not care about the Palestinian people. Hamas only cares about their cause.
