Hamas attacks Israel

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?

Since there has been a sudden burst of experts on the handling of prisoners of war, here is what I see from the photos of the @IDF and Hamas prisoners of war in Gaza.
According to the Geneva Conventions prisoners of war may include the following:
• Members of the armed forces
• Volunteer militia, including resistance movements
• Civilians accompanying the armed forcesWhen prisoners surrender (some unofficial reports Hamas surrendered out of tunnels) or are captured, they are immediately searched. Many militaries have internal processes, in the U.S. military it is to search, silence, segregate, speed (to the rear for processing), & safeguard.
In Israel and Gaza, combatants often have weapons and explosives (suicide vests and other) so a tactic of the @IDF is to have the prisoners remove their clothing down to their underwear from a distance to ensure they are not a threat to their captors or other prisoners.
Once searched, prisoners of war are rushed to safe areas (safeguarded) for processing for intelligence and detainment. This includes collecting individual information so prisoner information may be submitted to the ICRC.

As soon as I saw the picture I figured it was due to suicide vests and self-carried IEDs.

I’m going to think about them next time I have to take my shoes off at TSA.
Really it’s the same thing. The tax we pay due to jihadi death-cult members in our midst.

They don't look very starved. One wonders just where the humanitarian aid is going.

Bad decision. It’s barren desert and I’m pretty sure any offensive capability they have is easily identified and eliminated.

"I have heard people say one should always don intact and clean underwear in case you have to be taken to the ER. I suppose you could take the same precaution in the event that you have to surrender. I usually point out there's no dignified way to have an accident or surrender."

Netanyahu declares victory, the beginning of the end.
It's hard for me to fathom that it's been more than two months since the attacks. It seems like yesterday.

Biden's support of Israel:
President Joe Biden on Tuesday warned that Israel was losing international support because of its “indiscriminate bombing” of Gaza, speaking out in unusually strong language just hours before the United Nations demanded a humanitarian cease-fire in the Israel-Hamas war.
“Israel’s security can rest on the United States, but right now it has more than the United States. It has the European Union, it has Europe, it has most of the world supporting them,” Biden said to donors during a fundraiser Tuesday.
“They’re starting to lose that support by indiscriminate bombing that takes place,” he said.
“Israel has a tough decision to make. Bibi has a tough decision to make. There’s no question about the need to take on Hamas. There’s no question about that. None. Zero,” Biden said. But he added, of Israel’s leader, “I think he has to change his government. His government in Israel is making it very difficult.”

... resounding vote at the UN general assembly calling for an immediate humanitarian ceasefire in Gaza.
...
... A thumping 153 member states out of the 193 total membership backed the resolution, with only 10 including the US, Israel and Austria voting against, and 23 – including the UK and Germany – abstaining.

Israel responds:
Hamas broke the ceasefire on October 7 and on many days before that. It's just that Israel responded after that.
And again, when they murdered 3 civilians in Jerusalem during the "operational pause."

He forgot a "37" when reciting the number. Now, instead of the Hamas leader being called, some random Dominos Pizza in Beruit is about to be flooded with calls.

What's the over/under before they assume room temp?
