Seems like a bad idea

[Horace]

It reveals that the captors are legit sadists, and that they'll even reduce the bargaining power the hostages give them in order to indulge that sadism.

Plus. Hamas announced at noon that they weren’t releasing more prisoners.

It was the condition of the hostages just released. That set him off.

Doesn’t make it any less of a bad idea, unless you disagree with my argument above.

Hamas has until Noon on Saturday

This means they have until noon on Friday.

Remember, he is a big fat liar.

And he is tricky.

And again, this is coming about after Hamas announced they aren’t releasing hostages on Saturday and are stating the conditions have been broken.

Yeah probably bluster and it isn’t the first time they’ve threatened a pause.

I suspect Israel will resume operations. The U.S. will not impede munitions and any electronic or satellite intelligence we have will be at Israel's disposal.

[jon-nyc]

Of course. It’s about timing. The question is do they try to get the rest of this phases hostages out first ir not.

[Jolly]

I'm guessing not.
