This hostage and kidnapping business is awful. BIG mistake by Hamas.
Much better to exchange hostages and get back to guerilla war. If they don't release hostages the misery will go on.
There will hardly be two bricks stuck together or anything alive in the strip. No hostage release. It could go on for a year or longer, as Hezbollah have stuffed everything in Beirut and Lebanon, and are being egged on; and US congress has just passed funding for more shiploads of bigger bombs.
Humour is that the armament will be likely unloaded at Ashkelon, 5 or 6 miles from where they are unloading cereals and protein food aid.
Indeed different deliveries.
They are marching in the streets in Israel protesting; demanding that Netanyahu get the kidnapped civilians back. But Hamas does not even mention hostages in this mornings CNN story.
