The short video clip shows Mia Schem lying on a bed, her right arm being bandaged by someone out of the frame. A long, fresh scar is clearly visible.
Schem, a 21-year-old French-Israeli woman, is being held hostage by the militant group Hamas in the Gaza Strip. The video released by Hamas on Monday is the first footage of any of the dozens of people held in the enclave.
Speaking into the camera, Schem, who looks pale, but is sitting up straight with her head held high, says she was injured and taken to Gaza, then pleads to be returned to her family.
As she speaks, loud rumbling can be heard in the background.
Speaking to reporters on Tuesday in Tel Aviv, Schem’s mother urged the government and world leaders to bring her daughter back home.
Whenever people go, “This is fucked up. Kidnapping people.”
Some asshole always replies, “Well what about what X is doing?”
Get ready.
Yes. Whataboutism is what trolls and bad faith players use to detract. Don’t let them. Don’t even engage. Just downvote and move on.
Two things can be messed up at once. There’s hope yet for the safe release of the hostages if Israel and America are willing to cooperate and openly communicate with Hamas officials. Bombing hospitals hasn’t done much to stabilize things in the region or progress talks with regards to releasing the hostages. Israel must commit to a ceasefire, and must co-operate firstly with red cross and the UN, secondly with Hamas and Hezbollah and Iran to prevent this from escalating into a war on multiple fronts. Everyone wants the hostages to be released safely.
Still sticking to the Israeli air strike story huh? Nice, makes it clear how objective you are
Provide proof to the contrary. No one has yet. It’s entirely heresay and “we have proof but we won’t show you”. Israel sent a fake video that was almost immediately disproven. They’ve bombed schools today. They’ve bombed other hospitals since Oct 7th. I don’t doubt for a single second that they would do this.
And even more violence could have been prevented if Hamas had cooperated and openly communicated with Israel before they attacked and took hostages. /s
If all the Raw I watched in the late 90s taught me anything it’s that X’s telling people to “Suck it”
Is Raw some sort of gay porn?
What? No. It’s a bunch of greased up muscle dudes who wrestle each other in skimpy… Oh
No, it was a WWF/WWE wrestling program so it’s not intentionally gay porn but could be used for those purposes.
Fuckin hell I would’ve expected more decorum from the World Wildlife Fund
Would totally fuck a panda tho
And I would have fucked a few pro wrestlers if I had the option.
