Yes! That's one of the biggest lies, unfortunately... Israel killed its own citizens on October 7, which was admitted by a retired Israeli army major.
It "mistakingly" killed 3 hostages who escaped, waving a white cloth on which they wrote words in Hebrew, and they even shouted in Hebrew before being shot! This is part of what Israel calls the Hannibal doctrine.
The IOF gazed a few more in a tunnel while the risk there could be hostages is always high in the tunnels!
The hostages safety has NEVER been a priority for Israel and never will!
The 4 hostages they "rescued" along with US soldiers disguised in food aid workers while killing at least 274 hungry Palestinians, among whom many kids who were excited about eating a meal after starving was merely a marketing strategy and a manipulative communication to gain some time for Netanyahu, who many Israelis blame for the security failures leading up to the Oct. 7 attack and the failure to return the hostages despite months of grinding genocide.
There are very serious allegations about the involvement of Israel in facilitating Hamas operation. One of the main investigation drives is the fact that Israel moved the festival date to October 7. The second extremely telling detail about allowing October 7 to happen to find the perfect excuse to ethnically cleansing Palestinians is: Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu using a red marker on a map of 'The New Middle East' as he addresses the 78th session of the United Nations General Assembly, September 22, 2023, a map that showed the West Bank and Gaza as part of Israel, a map that straddles the entire land from the river to the sea, negating Palestine and its people!
This is why I love psychology, thinking critically, and unstoppably educating myself! When we know better, we can better serve the world as a whole!
