GAZA/TEL AVIV, Nov 22 (Reuters) - Israel’s government and Hamas agreed on Wednesday to a four-day pause in fighting to allow the release of 50 hostages held in Gaza in exchange for 150 Palestinians imprisoned in Israel, and the entry of humanitarian aid into the besieged enclave.

    There’s a handful of people that really don’t want to acknowledge that

      And these 150 prisoners are Hamas terrorists that will be exchanged for 50 innocent civilians.

      So hamas will have more terrorists on their side to fan the flames for Netinyahu’s next response.

        They’re Palestinian women and children, not terrorists. It’s a trade of innocents for innocents

          13 women mostly convicted of stabbings.

          Edit: 33 women are on the list of 300 total, I counted the Hebrew source material myself. I think the 13 is of those with stabbing charges and convictions.

          Overwhelming majority of minors did fucked up shit.

              OK, terrorist. Attempting murder is bad.

              They picked this set because Hamas asked for this set. The actual convicted murders weren’t allowed to be released.

              There’s no hostages in Israel, there’s people being processed by the courts. If you think the wait times are bad go check out Japan and claim they have hostages, or the US prison system with constitutional slave labor and barely any public defenders with the largest per capita prison pop in the world.

              There’s something like 50 women total held.

              All of these people get charged there’s a reason almost no one on the list is there for more than 2 years without being tried in civil court. The military tribunal cases convert over when they get processed. They were charged and their charges are listed in the database.

                I mean if anti settler violence is terrorism then yea I wholeheartedly support terrorism. Settlers should not be there.

                Also idc who does it. If someone is held without charges in prison, they’ve been taken hostage by the state.

          They are terrorists.

          Israel didn’t kidnap them for no reason. Unlike what Hamas does.

          Go vote for Trump and believe in fake news.

            The over a thousand people held without charges would disagree with you. Are trusted human rights organizations fake news now?
