Israel supporters attack hostage exchange plan for Gaza ceasefire
Supporters of Israel are undermining a plan for a hostage exchange during a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas that was announced overnight (November 21-22) – and they all seem to be reading from the same script.
Odd, that.
It seems the deal to pause fighting will allow 50 hostages to be released from Gaza and 150 Palestinians to be released from Israeli prisons.
The ceasefire will begin at 10am on Thursday (November 23) and will last for four days.
A further number of hostages may be released – up to 150 Palestinians and 50 Gaza hostages – after the four-day pause.
This Writer will be very interested to know the condition in which the Israeli hostages arrive back in their own country. If they have been well-treated, what will this tell us about the words of people like Israeli government spokesman Eylon Levy, who was whipping up fear about Hamas “rapists” only days ago?
Meanwhile, the usual suspects have been trying to undermine the hostage exchange. Here’s what they’re saying:
Remember this:
The Palestinians who will be released in the impending deal are convicted terrorists who are in prison because they tried to murder Israelis.
The Israelis who will be freed are innocent civilians being held hostage by terrorists.
There is no equivalence. None.

FACT: The Israeli hostages being released, are civilian children, women and elderly. Innocent people snatched from the homes.
Palestinians being released are terrorists and violent offenders, convicted in court.
There is no parity here.

The Hamas hostages being released are children and mothers kidnapped during their brutal massacre of civilians.
The prisoners Israel is swapping them for are those who have tried to kill.
Innocents for the guilty.
That’s all you need to know about this conflict.

It’s as though someone has told these people what to say, isn’t it?
Especially as it seems their claim about the Palestinians is not true:
The only convicted terrorist in this situation is Itamar Ben Gvir. The Palestinians to be released have been held in ‘administrative detention’, in military prisons, awaiting trial, often for years.
Your lies are so blatant now it’s a wonder your brain hasn’t exploded. pic.twitter.com/bNn8iwkKZU

Again, I would suggest that if you want your social media feeds to be free of fake news, lies and/or propaganda, you would be well-advised to block the accounts of those making the apparently-false claims above.
