      Keep in mind we are talking about Hostages (Hamas) vs Prisoners (Israel). This isn't exactly a hostage swap or prisoner swap. Aka... An innocent Israeli girl in exchange for an (accused) rapist or murderer, is not exactly a swap.

            Why does Israel do this? What's in it for them, given the horrible optics?

                  Ok between Zalensky and now Israeli leaders getting the appellation, we can safely say “Nazi” now means “someone I really don’t like”.

                      I’m old enough to remember when the comparison was made right here in America.

                                https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/israel-investigates-possible-trading-knowledge-ahead-oct-7-hamas-attack-2023-12-04/

                                Israeli authorities are investigating claims by U.S. researchers that some investors may have known in advance of a Hamas plan to attack Israel on Oct. 7 and used that information to profit from Israeli securities.

                                Research by law professors Robert Jackson Jr from New York University and Joshua Mitts of Columbia University found significant short-selling of shares leading up to the attacks, which triggered a war nearly two months old.

                                "Days before the attack, traders appeared to anticipate the events to come," they wrote, citing short interest in the MSCI Israel Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) that "suddenly, and significantly, spiked" on Oct. 2 based on data from the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA).

                                "And just before the attack, short selling of Israeli securities on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange (TASE) increased dramatically," they wrote in their 66-page report.

                                In response, the TASE referred Reuters to the Israel Securities Authority, which said: "The matter is known to the authority and is under investigation by all the relevant parties."

                                    @jon-nyc all kinds of "context" being added to that tweet.

                                    "These are civilians"
                                    "This is north Gaza, not Khan Younis"
                                    "PsyOp."

                                        Readers added context:

                                        Many of the shoes were right shoes, and many of those right shoes were behind the left shoes.

                                        Community rating: The claim that left shoes were behind, is disinformation.

                                        Education is extremely important.

                                          These are not POWs. They are solely responsible for the thousands of deaths of their own people. Is there really any reason to keep them around?
