Tens of thousands of Israeli protesters demand hostage release deal

Tens of thousands of Israelis protested in one of the largest demonstrations since war began nearly 11 months ago. In Jerusalem, thousands gathered outside Netanyahu’s office demanding that his government agree a ceasefire. In Tel Aviv, relatives of the hostages marched with coffins, chanting “Now! Now!”

One of Israel’s most powerful trade unions called for a general strike to start Monday as anger grows about Binyamin Netanyahu’s handling of the hostage crisis after the bodies of six Israelis seized by Hamas were recovered from Gaza.

The head of the Histadrut union, which represents 800,000 workers, said the “entire Israeli economy” would “go on complete strike” from 6am to pressure the government into agreeing a deal to secure the release of the remaining hostages.

The U.S. can’t stop it, but is also responsible for the ongoing war and won’t stop it.

It's in the hundreds of thousands, as many as 500, 000.

no matter who pulled the trigger, Netanyahu has blood in his hands.

His government knew that Hostages were being held in Gaza, but taking the land was more important to them than the lives of their own people. so they spent 11 months denying access to basic necessities (food, water and medical care) whilst simultaneously bombing to the point where they have razed it to the ground. Nowhere was safe- they hit hospitals, schools, mosques, Churches, Charity buildings and Headquarters.

What *exactly* did Israel expect? Did they think that the hostages would just "miraculously survive" that kind of onslaught for 11 months and come out unscathed? These are the same people who shot three escaped hostages, three of their own, after they clearly identified themselves and asked for help. They also shot their own people on October the 7th.

Normal, everyday Israelis need to understand that their leadership cares more about eradicating Palestine than it ever will about the lives of its own people, to the point where they are sacrificing them to reach their goals.
