Jimmy, you use some funny language at times.. the agreement was never to release all hostages on Saturday as I understand it. This is a new demand by Israel because of the condition of the hostages handed over last week. I’m not sure Hamas not complying can be immediately assumed as them provoking anything
Israel also seem to have overlooked the fact that killing 40,000 and levelling the entirety of Gaza didn’t find those hostages, so not sure why they think resuming again would find them now? Israel had the opportunity to get those hostages home earlier as it stands, and turned it down so they could try to finalize their obliteration of Gaza. Benjis concern for the hostages is secondary to his ultimate goal
