Israelis protest against Netanyahu in largest-ever demonstration

Israelis, apparently, hold their Government responsible for the deaths of hostages.

 
"Sep 8, 2024 #Palestine #Gaza #GazaUnderAttack Al Jazeera's Hamdah Salhut joins live from Amman, Jordan. Salhut reports that Al Jazeera is covering the story from outside Israel due to being banned by the Israeli government. She notes that this is the largest protest in Israel’s history at a single location. Organizers estimate that 500,000 people have taken to the streets of Tel Aviv, with another 250,000 protesting across the coun-try, including in West Jerusalem, Haifa, and Rishon LeZion. These demonstrations come during a week of consecutive protests, following the Israeli army's an-nouncement that it had recovered the bodies of six captives in Gaza, a move that has angered the Is-raeli public. Salhut highlights that the families of the captives are blaming Prime Minister Netanyahu, accusing him of having blood on his hands and being the main obstacle to a ceasefire deal."

 


 Israelis, apparently, question the claim that Hamas killed these hostages, saying why would Hamas kill their bargaining assets, for which they could get many Palestinians released from prison?  Also, some of the released hostages contradicted their Government's claim that they were badly treated by Hamas.  It looks like the Hannibal doctrine may be still in effect, in which case, hostages in body bags may be the only way of return.
