Subject: RE: BS: Hamas attacks Israel - part II
I don't hear any supporters of Palestinians shouting "Release the Hostages!"
One passenger said he was not only angry because of delays but also, he says, because the demonstrators aren't talking about what caused the war - the terrorist group Hamas killing 1,400 Israelis and taking others hostage.
"Pre-mediated massacres. God bless you, my son. Hope you see the light," the passenger told a demonstrator.
It sounds like Netanyahu has written them off. Or is everyone being quiet to not jinx negotiations?
Israeli officials would not comment on the status of negotiations over a deal to free hostages.
In Israel, Netanyahu has faced considerable political pressure over his handling of the conflict, including his limited contact with the families of people killed or taken hostage. And he is seen by critics as attempting to deflect responsibility for the deadliest attack on civilians in Israel's 75-year history.
