  1. Power of a Corrupt Government is in it's War powers. netanyahu does not want hostages released so he can prolong the War till people forget about his Corruptions.

  2. Praying for Naama, the 19 yo girl taken hostage, who knows by which group in Gaza. It’s gross when people don’t acknowledge the tragedy and horror. Imagine this happening to your daughter! Wrong is wrong, say it EVERYWHERE it is wrong.

  3. Either it is a question of gaining or securing money or these Israeli governmental terrorists are perversly addicted to power or both.

  4. Some Israelis have been protesting 3 months now against attacks on Palestinian citizens. Thank you France 24 for showing a glimpse of this!

  5. biden is going to pay the biggest price from this massacre, he is going to losse to biden and trump is going to still support israel but biden is going no pay the price for his unwavering support for israel .

  6. Netanyanhu : "I have killed many platine people my position is more important, this war is more important than the lives of prisoners"😅
