It's so heartbreaking what these families are going through! CNN should also interview Palestinian families who have family members in Israeli prisons for administrative detention, those held without any charges. They are also hostages. and Jack tapper there is no marches supporting hamas. its for the Palestinians.
and who voted for Hamas knowing full well their charter calls for the destruction of Israel and the killing of Jews? Tell me - what does "from the river to the sea" mean?
@@shtroiznit means they must be free and end the apartheid and stop the occupation Hamas was elected around 2006. 50% of the population today weren’t even born yet. And Hamas won about 45% ish So, that’s stupdddd to generalize everyone.

Apartheid... what a joke. 20% of Israelis are Arabs, mostly Muslims - including MPs, judges, business leaders. There is freedom of religion in Israel. How many non-Muslims hold positions of power in all Muslim states combined? We know the answer. Mahmoud Abbas proudly proclaimed there will be zero Jews in the future Palestinian state. So don't talk to me about apartheid.

If they were arrest for acts done in the West Bank, Gaza or East Jerusalem then sorry, or against Israeli police / Soldiers anywhere then they are resistance fighters not criminals.
As so many have been saying, it is NOT "a complicated issue." Israel has a long-standing and well-known policy of stealing land and homes from Palestinians, restricting their movement, denying them human and political rights, etc., and now the world is beginning to see that policy as genocidal, cruel, inhumane. There must be a separate state of Palestine.
This is a completely groundless decision because the Palestinians themselves have refused to create their state five times already. Stupid Palestinian women give birth to children so that they can kill as many non-Muslims as possible and die themselves. Who needs such a population?
It is not complicated treat the Palestinians with love and kindness and don’t steal their land, and build settlements, etc! The Palestinians have a right to self determination free from Israeli occupation, and racist aggression!
Jews are minority in 1947, they start the ethnic cleasing, by jews militia, before any arab army come in 1948. why need palestininan who are majority need to accept the partition?? even after that Israel refuse to let Palestininan have a state. in 1967 israel demolish moroccan quater in old city jerusalem, and rigth way build jewish settlement non stop until today, deep in their heart they never let palestininan have a state, no 1 state no 2 state, they just want a land, palestininan will be control and land be taken. that is the fact, palestininan and 2 billion muslim world wide have right to hate israel@@dianadelcastillo1896

Why is the US only reporting on these cases and not the horrible occupation on top of now genocide ( by international human rights lawyers) This is sad and I feel bad for them but Jake is Ignoring the catastrophe. 15000 innocent (not soldiers) killed.
Revenge and brutality are no solution on either side. To believe God or Allah or Yaweh wants this is insanity.

Every Palestinian has a ton of suffering stories of expulsion and attck from "people of God". Jews statehood existence shouldn't not be based on the destruction of others. Please open your mind. Oppression is a cycle, if you are Oppressing others just be cause you have power and ability today, you are building the ground to be oppressed tomorrow when you don't have the power anymore

What's actually mind blowing is the fact that they don't spare a thought about the Palestinian children killed, and the pain their mothers are feeling.
Exactly, not a second of empathy for palestinian families. This is why people are turning their backs on Israel, ZERO accountability or empathy for the pain their government has caused them for DECADES and how that that pain came back and bite them hard.

Little children are imprisoned on daily basis. CNN never reported on that. What a shame. On the top of everything, entire world is watching and witnessed this hypocrisy.
They are murderers in prison, get your facts straight dude! There are over 5000 Arabs, including Palestinians, in the IDF....you think they are abducting Palestinians?

And I am not from Gaza, I am from a Christian Catholic family from EU, I don't have anything with Gaza, but it is unsustainable, Israel is commiting ethnic cleansing and genocide and Jo Biden and his administration + EU support it! It is beyond any sanity. It is unforgettable. It is for the ICC.

No. Israeli prisons used to try to control the Palestinians in the prisons but due to resistance they just let them exist in the prison and kind of do what ever they want.. there was actually a big controversy across Israel about this because many thought it was wrong that people who commit terror acts live off of the government so freely, a lot of them spend their days getting degrees.. stop trying to compare a democracy (even though it has it's problems for sure) to a terror organization hiding in tunnels
You dont realize how painful it is until you put yourself in there shoe. This might be new to you but very normal for people on the otherside. My sympathies goes to innocent civiliance who are suffering from both sides
Those are obviously grieving/hopeful parents and I can only empathize with their plight. You would hope that this plight would help them realize the humanity of the other side loosing their kids, but it's really sad that Tapper is using dehumanizing words 6:44, even more sad that everything they said is also true for the Palestinians
@@randommusings48 these are words put into the mouth by American-Zionist propaganda... it's all a farce... the world hasn't seen children beheaded nor women raped... but we have seen the genocide of Palestinian children and the Palestinian people.

@@randommusings48 They lost 1,200 of their people in ONE day in the most barbaric and sadistic manner. It is VERY reminiscent of the holocaust. Until you have lived with the constant threat of extermination, maybe you should keep your uninformed judgment to yourself.

Those people are DELIBERATELY IGNORING all the efforts Israel has exerted to minimize civilian casualties. As to genocide??? The Jews lost two thirds, yes, TWO THIRDS of the European population. THAT is genocide.
They just have this victim mentality pumelled into their head. Cant blame them sometimes for how they think cause the amount of propaganda they get fed just fries their brain
It's sad to see families in these situations but it's even more sad to see these families lay all the blame on Hamas without blaming their government despite the history & records before them of how their government has been brutalizing & violating the Palestinian people for decades ...these feelings are what the Palestinian people have been feeling for decades while the isreali public lives in a Bubble without a single care for the plight of their suffering neighbour.
These are Americans who _chose_ to send their children to Apartheid Israel so it stands to reason that they have little or no regard for the killing of innocent Palestinians by that racist regime.
How has the Israeli government brutalized violated Palestinians? Because I looked up EVERY conflict brought up by Palestinian supporters and learned that they were ALL started by the Palestinians. Seems like it's the Palestinians are the ones trying to brutalize the Jews.
@SusanGreggs I am not justifying Hamas actions & no one says Isreal or Jews should give up their land or country but to respect international laws & allow the Palestinians to have a life & a future. It's easy for you to judge because you are not in the shoes of people with no past, present or future nor are you in the shoe of a mother watching are kids being killed or jailed for years with no conviction or trail or watch her home or families bombed. We should be able to feel & try to understand both sides.. what would you do if you & your children lived in Gaza (open air prison) without a future & being bombed by an occupying power periodically??

By describing what the conditions were for the released hostages, they are giving us a glimpse of what life is like for people living in Gaza. The ones that have no where to go.
Feeling bad for these folks, hope they see their family members soon but would have liked if they had at least said something about all the children killed by the bombing...they are human too...they have families too ..the situation is just so sad ...😢😢😢😢😢
War is horrible. Civilians, including women and children, are always killed in war. When Hamas unconditionally surrenders, that will immediately end this war.
Taking hotages is beyond awful, but i am surprised to hear so little about innocent Palestinian civilians who have been bombed and their homes turned into craters. I am surprised to hear so little knowledge of the inhumane lack of water and food for innocent Gazans. I'm surprised that they are surprised that hostages were hungry or lost weight given that Gazans are starving, literally. I just hope that these families find relief for their pain, but i hope part of that relief is more complete understanding about the pain that innocent Palestinians are suffering.
@@lala-ct9ir My comment dates from two weeks ago. Now network news is finally starting to present a more balanced picture of the horrific situation in Gaza. Now that 18,000 civilians have been killed, now that more than 6000 innocent children have been killed, now that starvation and cholera has set in, now that three innocent hostages were shot by the IDF, well, I guess the world needed to wait for that level of horror to wake up? Look at how many thousands of civilians needed to die in two weeks to wake people up. Btw what is the status of netanyahu's corruption trial?
It is truly a very horrible situation. In this time and age people doing such terrible things to each other is just wrong. As long as we are ignoring the plight of innocent victims nothing is going to change. I pray that people will educate themselves and bring a peaceful solution to that region.
it is devastating and horrific what these people are goign through. my heart breaks for them. but it saddens me that not one of them empthasized with what the other side has been going through for decades. put aside politics, religions, and look at them as humans. if you cannot sympathize with both sides, it is inhumane.
Did anyone from Gaza call for release of hostages from Hamas? One of the hostages who managed to escape from captivity was returned to Hamas by civilians around. I have sympathy on innocent Gazans, but I wonder how many of them are innocent
They're concerned for their family. To demand them to do something OTHER than that is gross. When I see a person in Gaza grieving, I don't think they should stop to state they feel empathy for Jews. How crazy do you have to be to expect that for someone with dead or kidnapped family members?
@@misterknee it's true that they are concerned about their family and they have the moral obligation to do that. But if they invade another country and occupy it, then kill 20k+ half of them children and women in response to 400 civilians and 300 hostages that were definitely treated well, they have to also feel remorse for what their army has done. Even settlers have been killing civilians left and right in the west bank. Describing what happened to them as a Holocaust is a joke tbh, what happened to gaza is x1000 worse than what they went through on the 7th but they don't dare call it horrible, let alone call it a Holocaust.
There have been terrible things done in the West Bank but nothing approaching this and your blatant exaggeration does not make the situation any better, it makes it worse.
You must have your head stuck in the ground. What are YOU talking about?? Gaslighting much? Thousands have marched wearing terrorist gear and chanting "from the river to the sea" as well as some carrying signs supporting Hamas
The facts are the palestinans have been living in an open prison for many years, why don´t you speak about this/; are they not humans that you couldn´t have talked about this issue in the past? Not all palestinians in Gaza are Hamas, try be in their (civilians) SHOES and lets see if you do not become objective
Because this is CNN and CNN, sadly, tends to ignore the Palestinian point of view in favour of the Apartheid Israel point of view. Hopefully, CNN changes for the better.
i dont understand where is your outrage towards the Egyptians they have a bordar with Gaza. ask yourself why both Israelis and Egyptians are afraid of opening the boarders

I have a question: If your sons and daughters are American, why did he join the Israeli army? What were they doing there in the first place? Helping the occupation? For the genuine hostages...I hope you see freedom. For those that when to fight... I have no sympathy.
Judaism is an ethnoreligion, if you do not know what that means then look it up. People also marry and have children with citizens of other countries all the time. There are plenty of Palestinians with dual nationality, and plenty with just American citizenship. They still consider themselves Palestinians. Why?
With all due respect, did you really think the Palestinians, who suffer from the same things that your loved ones suffered everyday, did you think that they would not do the same to you? If your Zionist state does this against the Palestinians, then what prevents the Palestinians from responding to that? Or it is ok when Israel does it but it is not when Hamas does that? It is an eye for eye situation unfortunately, and this will go on as long as the Palestinians have no justice. South Africans got their independence, and the Palestinians will get their independence. It is only a matter of time.

@@FreedomForAll288 It was started by the Arabs attacking Isreal almost from the moment of Israel's conception. And the Palestinians continued to attack Israel even after the surrounding Arab nations sued for peace after losing to Israel many times. So it is the Palestinians who are the aggressors. How can you not know that?? How can Anyone not know that? Because of the Palestinians refusal to accept Israel and resulting continual attacks, Israel was forced to defend itself. And after each conflict, ALL started by the Palestinians, by the way, Israel to more and more stein get security measure. Attacks continued even after Israel pulled out of Gaza in 2005. Finally, in 2007, a year after Hamas was voted into government, Israel was forced to blockade Gaza to prevent terrorist attacks. Is it clear now? Here's more... The Palestinians refused to accept repeated offers of a 2 state solution. Israel even returned Gaza in exchange for peace. The Palestinians accepted the land, but obviously did not honor the peace. They chose war each and every time. And THAT'S why the Palestinians are where they are today

Why would I be throwing my support to people who do not care about other innocent children? They are not exactly winning US Public support with these heartless comments.
its not a complicated issue..only rhetoric makes it so. Its a very simple crystal clear issue that Israel has occupied and oppressed the Palestinians militarily , socially , economically and in every possible way crushed their freedom. All military operations by Israel prior to the 7th of October were targetted attacks on civilians..Operation protective edge, Operation pillar of defence all were part of the periodic 'mow the lawn' strategy. Peace cannot prevail until and unless Israeli control over gaza, west Bank and the administrative control over Palestinians is broken . UNO & world leaders should ensure Arabs are completely free from the clutches of the ruthless apartheid regime. Which should also include complete withdrawal from occupied territory without fuss or intervention from US.
Maybe look into history. You might learn something. Like who was and has always been the aggressor. Israel has only ever RESPONDED and defended itself from Palestinian aggression. You might be interested to know that those Arabs who chose to stay in Israel in 1948 continued to live FREELY in Israel. And that's why there are generations of Arab Israelis.
Israel left Gaza in 2005. EGYPT and Israel have coenforced the Gaza blockade by land air and sea ever since with the blessing the Palestinian Authority (Mahmoud Abbas). You don't have a clue. It looks like the big mistake was giving Gaza freedom to be a racist terror state.

Back stabers of the highest level.
I wish the CNN could do such an interview of all kidnapped Palestinian children tortured in Israeli sham prisons for years. Nomenclature doesn't change the atrocities. But then when did the west consider occupied equal to occupier even children. The West has grown up normalising colonisation occupation slavery and treating some faction of human beings less equal and being okay with it. Like "third world". No there is only one world dear. And is moral racism leading to natural human empathic depravity. Almost every western channel starts conversation deprived from skewed distorted moral empathy and expects the rest of human beings to prove their " humaness" or "equality".
I’ve started to ask myself this same exact question every day recently. I can’t wrap my head around certain people not having an ounce of sympathy for other human beings, especially children or innocent civilians who have nothing to do with the current conflict, but expecting the entire world to have sympathy for them.

As you said, they are not equal.

All my family members had sympathy for Israelis since this war started but after Israelis dropped 6 2000 lbs bombs on refugee camp and even acknowledging it on TV, my sympathy vaporized for Israelis, Hamas is bad without doubt but turn around and kill 10 000 Women and children, come on and than you ask why there is void. Israelis destroyed their sympathy on day one when they turned off the water, electricity supply like we live in middle evil times and it is ok punish the civilians. The civilians suffering has to stop on both sides.
@@awilguled6300 of course there is sympathy for all who have died in this conflict on either side. The comments here reflect a lack of sympathy for what these Israelis are going through. Almost as though they believe Israelis deserved it or that sympathy is a competition and they can only choose one group for sympathy which is not the Israelis.
Speaking of the Red Cross, they are done . I follow very closely what they have been doing-or NOT doing-in Ukraine, and people there are so sick of their inaction about the war prisoners. It's grotesque, really- people there talk about seeing the "workers" zip around in their expensive cars , but when the Ukrainian side called a meeting ( it's on video) nobody showed up. I would not send them money, period. There are more direct ways to help victims wherever, easy to look up. Donate to local legitimate groups, etc. The families of the hostages are finding out now how the Ukrainian families have been feeling for two years now. It's horrendous!
For all the comments complaining that PARENTS are talking about anyone other than their captive children from whom there is no sign of life; I'm fairly confident you either have no concept of a parent-child bond, or you are hypocrites that wouldn't give up a cup of coffee for someone else.

I’m Wondering when you gonna interview some of the 8000 Palestinian hostages family. 1000 of them with administrative detention , no crime or conviction . 300 of them under 18.
Gaza and all the Palestinians have been colonised for more than 70 years. Thousands of them have been in jail for years. Hundreds of children, boys and girls have been kidnapped from their schools, homes and street and are still detained in the Israelly prisons living and experiencing all sorts of atrocities. Gaza is a huge prison, the largest and the most crowded prison in the world. And all these people are just trying to free their land from the occupier. And they won't stop doing it until they get their freedom.
A prison with shopping malls and luxury properties on the beach. What did the thousands do to end up in prison? Were they as hardened criminals as that 9 month baby taken by Hamas?
It is not their houses they were in a stolen property they took it from hamas s families after throwing them out with the help of idf you should know you are in danger when you re in some one s else's property
The houses these people live in were built by them, not by Palestinians unless they were hired to do so as builders, and the land was given to these people or purchased by them, they did not steal it.

These people from the border communities were the Palestinians best allies in Israel. This was before they watched their friends and family being tortured, raped, maimed, burned alive, kidnapped and slaughtered while Palestinians celebrated.

But there were actually a couple of activists killed on october 7 and you know what their families are saying? That the brutal occupation has to end because they know it is their government that put them all in harm's way and then failed to protect them to use them as an excuse to erase palestinians from their own land once and for all. Their government that funded hamas as a way to alienate palestinians from a real representation on the world's political scene. Now those families I have great respect for. These crew have turned into propagandists. So yeah, it's harder to feel sorry for people this obtuse. And no, no one who understands what got us here in the first place can ever lose empathy for the real victims here, the palestinian people.
We haven’t heard from nobody stop lying as for the father isn’t he the one that said his daughter is dead? Sand now he is speaking for her i don’t trust him. I want to hear from the hostages ever since that little old lady spoke they are controlling ppl from talking.
What nonsense! I happen to know the "little old lady" and she said nothing of the sort and has said plenty since then. Which you would know if you followed the news.
If they did that, they will bring somebody doesn't speech well english to explain well what in his mind.....you have to see who's behind those news media....there's no free media anymore
What about the family of Palestine, they also have a life, under age kids are dying who ain’t even seen life yet or don’t get the chance to because of the occupation,
It's so heartbreaking what these families are going through! CNN should also interview Palestinian families who have family members in Israeli prisons for administrative detention, those held without any charges. They are also hostages. and Jack tapper there is no marches supporting hamas. its for the Palestinians.

Why UN personal are not allowed to go into Gaza? this will help a lot for both sides. Right?
As so many have been saying, it is NOT "a complicated issue." Israel has a long-standing and well-known policy of stealing land and homes from Palestinians, restricting their movement, denying them human and political rights, etc., and now the world is beginning to see that policy as genocidal, cruel, inhumane. There must be a separate state of Palestine.
This is a completely groundless decision because the Palestinians themselves have refused to create their state five times already. Stupid Palestinian women give birth to children so that they can kill as many non-Muslims as possible and die themselves. Who needs such a population?
It is not complicated treat the Palestinians with love and kindness and don’t steal their land, and build settlements, etc!

Those people are DELIBERATELY IGNORING all the efforts Israel has exerted to minimize civilian casualties. As to genocide??? The Jews lost two thirds, yes, TWO THIRDS of the European population.

They just have this victim mentality pumelled into their head. Cant blame them sometimes for how they think cause the amount of propaganda they get fed just fries their brain
It's sad to see families in these situations but it's even more sad to see these families lay all the blame on Hamas without blaming their government despite the history & records before them of how their government has been brutalizing & violating the Palestinian people for decades ...these feelings are what the Palestinian people have been feeling for decades while the isreali public lives in a Bubble without a single care for the plight of their suffering neighbour.
These are Americans who _chose_ to send their children to Apartheid Israel so it stands to reason that they have little or no regard for the killing of innocent Palestinians by that racist regime.
Jews live on that land...they have right on land.. You are justifying hamas action.
How has the Israeli government brutalized violated Palestinians? Because I looked up EVERY conflict brought up by Palestinian supporters and learned that they were ALL started by the Palestinians. Seems like it's the Palestinians are the ones trying to brutalize the Jews.
@SusanGreggs I am not justifying Hamas actions & no one says Isreal or Jews should give up their land or country but to respect international laws & allow the Palestinians to have a life & a future.

War is horrible. Civilians, including women and children, are always killed in war. When Hamas unconditionally surrenders, that will immediately end this war.

Taking hotages is beyond awful, but i am surprised to hear so little about innocent Palestinian civilians who have been bombed and their homes turned into craters. I am surprised to hear so little knowledge of the inhumane lack of water and food for innocent Gazans. I'm surprised that they are surprised that hostages were hungry or lost weight given that Gazans are starving, literally. I just hope that these families find relief for their pain, but i hope part of that relief is more complete understanding about the pain that innocent Palestinians are suffering.

Look at how many thousands of civilians needed to die in two weeks to wake people up. Btw what is the status of netanyahu's corruption trial?

@@misterknee it's true that they are concerned about their family and they have the moral obligation to do that. But if they invade another country and occupy it, then kill 20k+ half of them children and women in response to 400 civilians and 300 hostages that were definitely treated well, they have to also feel remorse for what their army has done. Even settlers have been killing civilians left and right in the west bank. Describing what happened to them as a Holocaust is a joke tbh, what happened to gaza is x1000 worse than what they went through on the 7th but they don't dare call it horrible, let alone call it a Holocaust.

No, it does not.
There have been terrible things done in the West Bank but nothing approaching this and your blatant exaggeration does not make the situation any better, it makes it worse.

Because of the Palestinians refusal to accept Israel and resulting continual attacks, Israel was forced to defend itself.

Finally, in 2007, a year after Hamas was voted into government, Israel was forced to blockade Gaza to prevent terrorist attacks.

International law????? Dudes LOOK AT YOUR COUNTRY?!?!
Keep in mind that approximatively 85% of the isrealis wants Gaza to be flattened with ALL its population with it, doesn't matter if they're civilian or not..
Those who is in this mentality is worse than the mentality of the Hitler mentality. They faced the Hitler mentality and aims to be the same.
The issue is that IDF refused to recognize the right of palestinians.I wish you meet your loved ones safely. Free Palestine
We pray for they return safe and they will bcz palestinians will never treat them bad......free palestine
The IDF is an army, it is not up to them.
@@lala-ct9ir Three Israeli hostages killed mistakenly in Gaza by Israeli forces were shirtless and one of them was holding up a white flag, according to an initial inquiry into the incident, a military official has said.....that should let you know what are we dealing with lala....They kill without discrimination even if no treat to them with your hand up and hold white flag
Ironically, these people could so easily be speaking about Palestinians.
It's excellent that you sat with them, Jake and let them talk. Now go sit with the Palestinians and let *them* talk.
its very sad that we can't remember when was the last time CNN host the Palestinian families whom their children has been kidnapped by Israeli occupation and asking about their pain and feeling towards their tragedy of lose !!!
People have the right to break free from their oppression, if you have been born into a concentration camp, your whole life is oppression and misery with no past, no present, and no future.... what would you do in that situation??
Your ignorance is shining through. Do your research. Israel has had to defend itself from the moment of its inception. What would YOU do if your neighbors tried to wipe you and your family out? How would you treat the one neighbor who remains violent and aggressive? Somehow, I don't think you'd open your doors to them, would you
The tittle is totally misleading, none of the the israeli's hostage family members sjows any compasionate word for the plaestinian side...
Why would I be throwing my support to people who do not care about other innocent children? They are not exactly winning US Public support with these heartless comments.
its not a complicated issue..only rhetoric makes it so. Its a very simple crystal clear issue that Israel has occupied and oppressed the Palestinians militarily , socially , economically and in every possible way crushed their freedom. All military operations by Israel prior to the 7th of October were targetted attacks on civilians..Operation protective edge, Operation pillar of defence all were part of the periodic 'mow the lawn' strategy. Peace cannot prevail until and unless Israeli control over gaza, west Bank and the administrative control over Palestinians is broken . UNO & world leaders should ensure Arabs are completely free from the clutches of the ruthless apartheid regime. Which should also include complete withdrawal from occupied territory without fuss or intervention from US.
Maybe look into history. You might learn something. Like who was and has always been the aggressor. Israel has only ever RESPONDED and defended itself from Palestinian aggression. You might be interested to know that those Arabs who chose to stay in Israel in 1948 continued to live FREELY in Israel. And that's why there are generations of Arab Israelis.
Israel left Gaza in 2005. EGYPT and Israel have coenforced the Gaza blockade by land air and sea ever since with the blessing the Palestinian Authority (Mahmoud Abbas). You don't have a clue. It looks like the big mistake was giving Gaza freedom to be a racist terror state.
@@dianadelcastillo1896your are trying to mislead people and its not going to work. Listen to Bella Hadid's dad's interview to know what kind of people they are. He said there was a Jewish family from Europe, the United States refuse to take and they end up in Palestine, so the Hadid family took them in and lived with them for two years, so when the Hadid went to a hospital for the wife to give birth and when they came back, the Jewish family locked them out and claim the house. Back stabers of the highest level.
@@dianadelcastillo1896 history says there was no israel before 1948 see the map
Think about the palestinian prisoners who have been in jail for years and years for nothing
No thank you!
@@lala-ct9ir You don't wanna think about innocent people...that's so inhumane
@@seekingtruth163 Innocent? Sure, dream on!
I wish the CNN could do such an interview of all kidnapped Palestinian children tortured in Israeli sham prisons for years. Nomenclature doesn't change the atrocities. But then when did the west consider occupied equal to occupier even children. The West has grown up normalising colonisation occupation slavery and treating some faction of human beings less equal and being okay with it. Like "third world". No there is only one world dear. And is moral racism leading to natural human empathic depravity. Almost every western channel starts conversation deprived from skewed distorted moral empathy and expects the rest of human beings to prove their " humaness" or "equality".
How can someone have the deepest empathy to the israelis and have zero empathy for the Palestinians
I’ve started to ask myself this same exact question every day recently. I can’t wrap my head around certain people not having an ounce of sympathy for other human beings, especially children or innocent civilians who have nothing to do with the current conflict, but expecting the entire world to have sympathy for them.
We still do and care for their hostages...but we're sure they will be safe and return to their family bcz palestinians are not like idf....will never hurt a hostages...they just wsnt exchange to free their kids and loved one
@@jodi6708zionist mind only care for the choosen ones....we are not equal to them...we are here to serve them.....no feeling what so ever
@@mohammadjabak9078 I understand your point and I appreciate your response. Of course the safe return of the hostages is incredibly important. They are human beings and their lives matter. However, the lives of innocent Palestinians matter as well. Also this title is incredibly misleading, since the families didn’t even actually address the death of civilians in Gaza. As you said, they are not equal.
@@mohammadjabak9078 You must be delusional, have you not heard the stories the hostages tell or read the Amnesty report on what Hamas does to its own people?
Jake Tapper is one of a teeny handful of reporters honest enough to attempt to tell the truth. May he live to be 120 years in good health.
These people have their loved ones stolen and hostage of terrorists and your asking how they feel about civilian casualties in gaza? Horribly poor taste, just shameful.
Most of the comments here are absolutely void of sympathy for the hostages and their families. That is pathetic and hateful.
Can you say the same who aren’t ever going see their loved ones it’s crazy what about the 1000s of Palestines kids in jail with no charge like wtf
All my family members had sympathy for Israelis since this war started but after Israelis dropped 6 2000 lbs bombs on refugee camp and even acknowledging it on TV, my sympathy vaporized for Israelis, Hamas is bad without doubt but turn around and kill 10 000 Women and children, come on and than you ask why there is void. Israelis destroyed their sympathy on day one when they turned off the water, electricity supply like we live in middle evil times and it is ok punish the civilians. The civilians suffering has to stop on both sides.
@@awilguled6300 of course there is sympathy for all who have died in this conflict on either side. The comments here reflect a lack of sympathy for what these Israelis are going through. Almost as though they believe Israelis deserved it or that sympathy is a competition and they can only choose one group for sympathy which is not the Israelis.
Speaking of the Red Cross, they are done . I follow very closely what they have been doing-or NOT doing-in Ukraine, and people there are so sick of their inaction about the war prisoners. It's grotesque, really- people there talk about seeing the "workers" zip around in their expensive cars , but when the Ukrainian side called a meeting ( it's on video) nobody showed up. I would not send them money, period. There are more direct ways to help victims wherever, easy to look up. Donate to local legitimate groups, etc. The families of the hostages are finding out now how the Ukrainian families have been feeling for two years now. It's horrendous!
This is my impression precisely. If you have not yet, look up what they did or rather didn't do during the Holocaust.
For all the comments complaining that PARENTS are talking about anyone other than their captive children from whom there is no sign of life; I'm fairly confident you either have no concept of a parent-child bond, or you are hypocrites that wouldn't give up a cup of coffee for someone else.
Not everybody think like you...we care and if i have a family member hostage i will not call them terrorist and my loved one in their hands...and not let anybody use me for propaganda
@@mohammadjabak9078 Did not see you so far showing any empathy towards these Israeli parents or asking it of the Palestinians.
@@lala-ct9ir i feel sry for them and i hope idf stop killing them while carpeting gaza...from my heart i hope they all go home safe and it was wrong to take them hosteges in the first place and i do not agree with that even if isreal has palestinians woman and kids hosteges and they wanna do exchange...we are better than that...when the war is over you ganna find out that most of the isreali civilians died in crossfire and the idf tanks and airforce by mistake
@@mohammadjabak9078 Oh sure, and women were not raped at all right?
@@lala-ct9ir send a name please
Yes all that horrible inhumane. Wow sure. But that’s what the hostages in Israel and people in Gaza and the West Bank experience on daily basis
I’m Wondering when you gonna interview some of the 8000 Palestinian hostages family. 1000 of them with administrative detention , no crime or conviction . 300 of them under 18.
Can you imagine what it’s like for Palestinians?
Gaza and all the Palestinians have been colonised for more than 70 years. Thousands of them have been in jail for years. Hundreds of children, boys and girls have been kidnapped from their schools, homes and street and are still detained in the Israelly prisons living and experiencing all sorts of atrocities. Gaza is a huge prison, the largest and the most crowded prison in the world. And all these people are just trying to free their land from the occupier.
And they won't stop doing it until they get their freedom.
A prison with shopping malls and luxury properties on the beach. What did the thousands do to end up in prison? Were they as hardened criminals as that 9 month baby taken by Hamas?
The kids and women in isreal's jail, are ripped and beaten every single day.
The problem is you see that you are human more than the others
It is not their houses they were in a stolen property they took it from hamas s families after throwing them out with the help of idf you should know you are in danger when you re in some one s else's property
🤣🤣🤣
The houses these people live in were built by them, not by Palestinians unless they were hired to do so as builders, and the land was given to these people or purchased by them, they did not steal it.
I can't stand the western media double standards
#ceasefirenow
This is very unfair to these poor people I just can imagine their hurts and grief,we should not have this to deal with inthis time are we going forward or are we going back Ward l love you all and praying for you all and God's blessings.🤗🙏🙏🙏💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌹🌹🌹🌹
It seems you feel more than i thought for yours, 17000 are animals, 240 angels, and god is not unaware of what you doing.
Hearing the rhetoric used by this crowd who should be the most empathetic to losing a family member, makes my empathy for them and theirs disolve.
I wonder how much of their racist views their "innocent" hostages share.
💯
These people from the border communities were the Palestinians best allies in Israel. This was before they watched their friends and family being tortured, raped, maimed, burned alive, kidnapped and slaughtered while Palestinians celebrated. I can pretty much guarantee that your empathy for Palestinians would dissolve if you were in their position. It is a testament to their peaceful nature that some of them still feel any empathy at all.
@@lala-ct9ir Their best allies? By living in their stolen land? God save us from "allies" like that. These people really believe october 7 came out of no where which tells you they have ZERO awareness or accountability for their government's part on all this FOR THE PAST 75 YEARS. One has to be pretty dense not to understand what is happening on the the other side of the huge wall built on your literal backyard.
I don't know where you get they have empathy for others, they showed ZERO empathy for anyone but themseleves.
But there were actually a couple of activists killed on october 7 and you know what their families are saying? That the brutal occupation has to end because they know it is their government that put them all in harm's way and then failed to protect them to use them as an excuse to erase palestinians from their own land once and for all. Their government that funded hamas as a way to alienate palestinians from a real representation on the world's political scene.
Now those families I have great respect for.
These crew have turned into propagandists. So yeah, it's harder to feel sorry for people this obtuse.
And no, no one who understands what got us here in the first place can ever lose empathy for the real victims here, the palestinian people.
We haven’t heard from nobody stop lying as for the father isn’t he the one that said his daughter is dead? Sand now he is speaking for her i don’t trust him. I want to hear from the hostages ever since that little old lady spoke they are controlling ppl from talking.
What nonsense! I happen to know the "little old lady" and she said nothing of the sort and has said plenty since then. Which you would know if you followed the news.
American and 52 country was not able to remove Afghan freedom fighter therefore Israeli terorist can't remove gaza freedom fighter
I would love for cnn to have a Palestinian on their show and ask them how they feel about losing members of their family
If they did that, they will bring somebody doesn't speech well english to explain well what in his mind.....you have to see who's behind those news media....there's no free media anymore
A lovely + empathetic interview. thanks Jake.
If they are idf soldiers, they are prisoners of war, not hostages.
What about the family of Palestine, they also have a life, under age kids are dying who ain’t even seen life yet or don’t get the chance to because of the occupation,
Well if you can't imagine you can just look at the 1000s taken in Israel prisons ...
So unfair that criminals go to prison.
Yes, MSF want to go in but the question is why Isr@lie isn't allowing international aid agencies in, or international investigators and journalists?
Jake tapper doing the least acceptable bit of journalism required!
What is this people family doing in gaza?
