Israel’s hostage rescue: But At What Cost?

Israel’s hostage rescue: But At What Cost?

This weekend Israeli forces raided a refugee camp in Gaza and successfully freed four hostages who’d been abducted at a music festival on October 7. The Hamas-run Health Ministry says 274 people died in that raid, including children and civilians. The IDF says it killed fewer than 100. But whatever the total, it’s horrific. This was a refugee camp. Children were killed. That doesn’t make it any less horrifying that four innocent Israelis were snatched by terrorists at a music festival in the first place, and no less of a triumph that Israel has now brought them home. Two things can be true at the same time. What exactly is wrong with having a moral conscience about innocent people suffering? Journalist and broadcaster Emily Austin, Palestinian-American commentator, Omar Baddar & Host of “Part Of The Problem Podcast”, Dave Smith join to debate. Hosted on Acast.
