American hostage families' message for Netanyahu in D.C. meeting: Bring them home now
“There is an opportunity right now, and we must seize this opportunity,” Jon Polin, whose son is in captivity, told NBC News. “We need to get this done.”
During the Nakba ('47-48), Israel abandoned Jewish settlements in the hinterlands to the mercy of Palestinian militia and Arab soldiers so their troops could continue with the ethnic cleansing in parts of the country deemed more vital. David Ben-Gurion would make speeches apoplecticly predicting the second Shoah while in private and in his diaries he was preoccupied with the ethnic cleansing and knew the Arab armies were no threat. (especially Trans Jordan whom he had a secret side agreement with)
This is a reminder for the people who think Israel will prioritize the hostages, and the people who think Netanyahu is the problem.
