Freed Israeli captive Noa Argamani says she was wounded by Israel, not Hamas
Argamani denies reports that Palestinian fighters shaved her head and beat her during captivity, saying her injuries resulted from an Israeli strike
Noa Argamani, an Israeli woman freed from Hamas captivity in Gaza in June, said on Friday that her injuries were caused by an Israeli air strike during her rescue operation, not by a Hamas attack.
Speaking to diplomats from G7 countries in Tokyo on Wednesday, Argamani detailed her ordeal after she was taken captive by Palestinian armed groups during the 7 October attack. However, two days later, she issued a statement on Instagram, saying that some of her remarks had been misquoted and taken out of context.
Contrary to some Israeli media reports, Argamani clarified that she was not beaten or had her hair shaved by Palestinian fighters.
"[Hamas members] did not hit me while I was in captivity, nor did they cut my hair; I was injured by the collapse of a wall caused by an [Israeli] Air Force pilot," she added.

Clearly its Stockholm Syndrome...in that to the victims, the capters seemed to care more about keeping them alive than the supposed liberators. I don't know if I've ever seen a better example of Stockholm Syndrome since the actual bank robbery that spawned the term
Stockholm Syndrome isn't a real diagnosis. It's never been included in the American Psychiatric Association’s Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM). The guy who coined the term in that original bank robbery never even met with the victim he labeled with it and she had good reason to be more sympathetic to her captor than the authorities that risked and dismissed the value of her life. Not unlike how Israel's government has been responding to this hostage situation.
I probably could have worded my comment better, but yeah I was comparing the Hamas hostage situation to the original bank robbery in Stockholm where the hostages felt less endangered by the hostage takers than the authorities who were supposed to protect and save them
i mean, the feeling isn't wrong, just look at the amount of hostages we KNOW the IDF killed themselves already
The original bank robbery was called "Stockholm Syndrome" for bullshit reasons. It's not a real thing.
Year old account, very few controversial opinions posted, a few negative point comments, but we all have them. I don't think they were trying to troll. Perhaps they were trying to make sense of the situation and just improperly applied the term as an experiment to see if it fit. I didn't block this one, like I do most people who are trolling.
Thanks for the feedback.
Wow. Hilarious.
