    The Palestinian prisoners are not hostages. Comparing random civilians, elderly, and babies to convicted terrorists is Hamas level propaganda.

      You’re disgusting. Just to clear the rest up, there are 1200 who are in “administrative detention”, which is where they pick up a random Palestinian off the street and put them in prison. And in people who are charged, they’re charged by a military court with a 95% conviction rate where the most common charge is throwing stones.

        That is the same guilty rate as Israel’s internal convictions and is caused by police not bothering with anything that is not an easy win.

        The administrative detention also has judicial checks and limitations. Also, these are not random people picked off the streets, these are terrorists or would be terrorists where, for the most part, the evidence for detaining them is too sensitive from intelligence point of view to share in a trial.

      If the Palestinian prisoners were convicted terrorists, then why did Israel release them? 🤔

      https://www.aljazeera.com/gallery/2023/12/1/photos-palestinians-celebrate-release-of-another-batch-of-prisoners

      “The prisoners – including 23 children and seven women – were released hours after eight Israeli captives were freed by Hamas.”

      23 kids and seven women… yeah, sounds like a bunch of die hard radicals!

        You’re right, there are only security cameras of a few of these children running around stabbing civilians. I guess Al Jazeera forgot to mention that to you.

        Detaining 15 year old children that stab civilians is also a valid way of describing the reality. Also, according to UN and Al Jazeera, a 17 year old self proclaimed Hamas fighter that tries to kill Israeli civilians with a AK is a child. Somehow you take it to mean that he is innocent.
