Youtube comments of Holly Grant (@hollygrant9264).

  1. A woman on Tiktok gained attention recently for speaking up in defense of a 6-year old cheerleader with Down Syndrome. The woman called the child beautiful and added hashtags about loving Down Syndrome children and was praised for standing up for a special needs child. Yet she is the same woman who less than a year ago was screaming into her camera about Roe v. Wade being overturned. Both Matt and Ben reacted to her crazy Tiktok rant about it. I wish someone would publicly call her out for her hypocrisy. You can't cry for people to love Down Syndrome children and also cry for the right to murder them.

  2. Her decision to break one of God's commandments does not justify his decision to break another. The same moral compass that tells us adultery is wrong also tells us murder is wrong. The response to this from Brandon and this comment section is so deeply disappointing and disturbing.
    47
  3. No. Hersh was not a soldier. Just curious, did you write that because you were genuinely unaware? Or were you just desperately hoping everyone who reads your comment will take it as a fact and hoping no one like me would see it and call you out for lying?
    34
  4. I wonder what he would've said if she would've told him babies have survived premature delivery at 21 weeks.
    28
  5.  @SJ-dn5wk  I guess you just answered Dr. Phil's question. Nothing will ever be enough.
    28
  6. No, because this has nothing to do with that.
    20
  7. It isn't a competition. Two tragedies can exist at the same time. What the innocent children of Gaza are experiencing as war casualties is heartbreaking. What the innocent children of Israel experienced on October 7th is heartbreaking. Also, one of the youngest hostages from Israel was a three-year old child who literally crawled out from underneath her father's dead body before terrorists kidnapped her. There are plenty of suffering children on both sides.
    17
  8. All tragic consequences of the war Hamas started.
    16
  9. Eden Yerushalmi weighed less than 80 pounds before Hamas executed her in Gaza. The truly mind boggling thing is not just that you would make a comment like this, but that there are other people who actually share your backwards way of thinking.
    15
  10.  @HigherSpiritualFrequencies  Go back and listen again. You misunderstood.
    12
  11. You misunderstood. Go back and listen to that part again and you'll see she was challenging the other person's confidence in a specific doctor's medical advice.
    12
  12.  @anastasia-ICXCNIKA  Like the commenter, you misunderstood what Lila said. Go back and listen again. She was challenging the other person's confidence in a doctor who gave bad medical advice.
    12
  13. They do know they were taken. They haven't confirmed whether or not they've been killed in captivity.
    10
  14.  @KathyZ-y8b  Nothing you think happened before October 7th justifies October 7th.
    9
  15. You know who you can blame for their suffering? Hamas who started this war. You know who isn't to blame for their suffering? The Israeli children who are also suffering.
    9
  16. The fact that you can say that after the Bibas children and many others were murdered by Hamas in captivity is nothing short of amazing.
    9
  17. The innocent children of Gaza and the innocent children of Israel are all tragic victims of the war Hamas started. There's no reason to compare one to the other. There is plenty of suffering on both sides.
    9
  18.  @kpopfanxx-xx1154  Ask yourself what crime someone would have to commit towards you personally that would justify yourself going into their home and brutally murdering their innocent family. Tell me what crimes Israel committed that justified October 7th. If you believe any "before" justified October 7th then you are condoning those actions.
    9
  19. Yes, I did see them. Are you referring to the ones who came out en masse to dance, cheer, and take selfies during the terrorists' parade? Or the hundreds who crowded in with their cell phones as they climbed on top of the Red Cross vans to laugh and shout at the hostages during their release? Or the dozens of prisoners who came out clean and fed with enough energy to parade through the streets?
    8
  20.  @coallie  Those innocent civilians repeatedly voted Hamas into power then helped kidnap, murder, and hold hostages. Most still believe October 7th was justified. A year into this war they were still cheering and taking selfies with Hamas on the streets. Civilians abducted Shiri Bibas with her two little boys in her arms then danced on a stage after their dead bodies were handed over to the Red Cross. Gaza started this war. Now Gaza is paying for it. Also, if those numbers are supposed to be the death toll for the last 19-months you are wildly mistaken.
    8
  21. There is no meet in the middle. Teachers aren't nannies.
    8
  22.  @Supahead79  Nope. The dog is her pet.
    7
  23. Uh, no. That's ridiculous. It implies the tip was a legitimate reason for attempted murder. We don't suggest doing away with a thing just because someone decides to act like a fool about it. Good grief, you do realize there are millions who work for tips who don't try to murder the customer over it, right?
    7
  24.  @Senadeer  To start with "I must assure you I am not happy with this" and end with "Please don't start to sympathize with IDF soldiers" not only shows your backwards way of thinking, but also blows out your own credibility. To justify any part of this makes you complicit with it. And nothing you think happened before October 7th justifies what happened on October 7th.
    7
  25. I've known quite a few disabled children who were loved and valued as children and, funny enough, were loved and valued as adults too. In fact, I have yet to meet someone who loves special needs babies and hates special needs adults. I also find people with special needs tend to have a much better outlook on life when the people around them don't imply they shouldn't exist.
    6
  26. Those Gazans are helping to hold the hostages.
    6
  27. Yes, because we all know if there are no bruises on the face that means the rest of your body cannot possibly be bruised either. Genius.
    5
  28. Be honest with yourself. You won't believe anything he says anyway.
    5
  29. 80-year old soldier. Got it.
    5
  30. ​ @Planet_Xplorer  I don't know what point you think you're making, but while we're on the topic would you care to disclose 8-month old Kfir's military history?
    5
  31. So, just so I'm clear, you believe we should confront adults with disabilities and ask them if they'd rather be dead?
    5
  32. They are tragic casualties of the war Hamas started.
    5
  33. Still not the teacher's job or problem. It's incredibly weird to me that some parents are okay with sending their children to school in diapers someone else will have to change.
    5
  34. Have you noticed that your comment provides the perfect example of what it means to try to gaslight people? Gaslighting-the practice of psychologically manipulating someone into questioning their own sanity, memory, or powers of reasoning.
    5
  35.  @kpopfanxx-xx1154  I would be interested in seeing evidence to support this claim.
    5
  36. May I ask how you would answer if I asked you if you would want to live the rest of your life as a burn survivor? Or a victim of severe assault? Paralyzed? Blind? In extreme poverty? A veteran with PTSD? If your answer is no, does that mean people who do fit these descriptions shouldn't be here?
    4
  37.  @angelasmr8818  Your false claim was that he was an active soldier. He completed his service months prior. He was kidnapped from a music festival in civilian clothing. If you don't believe me, you can look up the video Hamas published themselves of the moment they kidnapped Hersh and other civilians.
    4
  38.  @janegreen191  So, just to clarify, when you say all the hostages are soldiers, are you saying there are infants, toddlers, and school children serving in the IDF? And when you say none of them are innocent could you please elaborate on the crimes 9-month old Kfir committed before he was taken into Gaza by Hamas? I'm genuinely interested in your answer.
    4
  39. "....and if Hamas surrenders." I know the full statement cuts against your rant, but some of us pay attention and notice when you omit words for your convenience.
    4
  40. A tragic consequence of the war Hamas started.
    4
  41.  @noble_norse7786  I wasn't planning to, but if I was looking for a place to direct my questions about morality it certainly wouldn't be there.
    4
  42. Don't just tell us. Show us. Educate us. Prove to me that what I am seeing, hearing, and reading myself is a lie.
    4
  43. To confuse people like you.
    4
  44.  @kpopfanxx-xx1154  I agree the suffering of children is tragic no matter where they are in the world. In the case of October 7th though, there is no "before" that matters. There is no "before" that justifies terrorists burning children alive, shooting them in their beds, mutilating their bodies, or kidnapping them. And the "after" is indeed tragic, but innocent children who die as casualties of war and those who are brutally murdered are two different tragedies.

  45. Gaslighting-The practice of psychologically manipulating someone into questioning their own sanity, memory, or powers of reasoning. Thank you for providing a clear example of what this looks like.
    4
  46.  @jackwilson5542  Just to clarify, do you make this comment as someone who is just unaware of the many disabled people who live full, happy lives or are you simply pretending they don't exist?
    3
  47.  @jackwilson5542  You believe in a person's right to die if they explicitly choose, but you believe this baby had no right to live without being able to explicitly choose. You believe the baby should have been killed in the womb because of his disabilities, but that people with those same disabilities outside the womb should not be killed. You believe the baby will have a miserable life, but you acknowledged people with disabilities can live good lives. You believe he should not live because he was disabled before birth, but believe people should be able to live if they become disabled after birth. You believe it is selfish that his parents accepted him with his disabilities, but not selfish to kill him for his disabilities. Your belief system is nothing but contradictions.
    3
  48. So you would have no sympathy for Hamas then, correct?
    3
  49. And what titles would you give 8-month old baby Kfir and 85-year old great-grandfather Shlomo?
    3
  50.  @ethelcowieson1696  Your own life could look radically different in 20 years. So many harsh trials and tribulations you could face. And yet your life would hold no less value than it does right now.
    3
  51. Selfish for loving their baby for who he is, but not for ending his life because he is imperfect. This backwards way of thinking is so sad.
    3
  52. Don't just tell us. Please show us. Disprove it. Educate us. Prove to us that everything we have seen, heard, and read ourselves is a lie. I'm being sincere. Quite literally.
    3
  53. Gaslighting-the practice of psychologically manipulating someone into questioning their own sanity, memory, or powers of reasoning. Thank you for providing yet another perfect example of trying to convince people they aren't seeing what they're actually seeing.
    3
  54. Hamas is solely to blame for all the suffering around October 7th.
    3
  55. Can you provide the evidence please to disprove this video? I'm very interested.
    3
  56.  @Esteban-b1q  Just ask them to provide facts that back their claims and they'll disappear like a magic trick.
    3
  57.  @ayeshaahmar6351  That has nothing to do with the point being made. The commenter asked if you could imagine how someone would look after 420 days in an Israeli jail. We don't have to imagine. There is footage of Sinwar being released after 20-years in an Israeli jail. You're trying to deflect because that footage and the fact that an Israeli doctor saved Sinwar's life cuts against your narrative.
    3
  58. They didn't have to cut it. He has already said they told him to do it.
    3
  59.  @Planet_Xplorer  I wasn't the one drawing a connection between victims' military service and their kidnapping. That was you. You implied this man's former military service meant he wasn't a hostage. I pointed out that his former military service is irrelevant because Hamas was targeting civilians, not soldiers. Now you're trying to deflect because you don't want to acknowledge it. So, again, would you like to clarify the proper labeling for the infants, toddlers, and school children Hamas kidnapped?
    3
  60. ​ @Planet_Xplorer  But you said they took prisoners of war. Now you say they took women and children. Your narrative seems to be at war with itself.
    3
  61.  @mideastgirl8926  That's why I said I left her name for other readers and not for you. I had no doubt you knew about her firsthand experience and were choosing to discredit it. Hopefully others will not.
    3
  62.  @c-yah1325  I recall someone in the old days suggesting that whoever was without sin could cast the first stone at an adulteress.
    3
  63.  @coallie  Gaza voted Hamas into power. Whether that was 20 or 50 years ago doesn't matter. Also, you aren't helping your cause by pointing out how young the Gaza population is. Who keeps bolstering Hamas' numbers? How did they replenish all the thousands of fighters who've been arrested/eliminated over the past 19-months so quickly? Hamas recruits youth. Hamas trains child soldiers. It's impossible to know for sure, but there are estimates that a large portion of Hamas fighters are under age. You keep quoting one source that has not proven but speculated the death toll, but you haven't mentioned that multiple sources from right, left, and center state that the death toll does not differentiate between fighters and civilians. So whatever number you want to use you can be assured that a large percentage of that includes Hamas fighters. Also, Hamas is the one who often shares those numbers and it has been proven that they are skewed. Nothing you are saying changes the truth in any way. Also, I have yet to see widespread celebration in Israel over the war casualties in Gaza, but even if that were true you have no reason to be upset if you don't care that Gazans are literally dancing over the deaths of Israeli children.
    3
  64.  @coallie  It's odd that you keep doubling down on this without acknowledging the difference between an actual innocent child and a member of Hamas. It isn't hard for me to see the difference between a 4-year old child and a 17-year old terrorist. For someone who cares so much about children though you didn't seem to have anything to say about the Gazans dancing over the Bibas boys' caskets. Just like you had no comment on the citizens who still cheer for Hamas, helped hold hostages, looted, murdered, and kidnapped on 10/7, and continue to justify it. I have no trouble acknowledging the innocent minority in Gaza who oppose Hamas and they have my sympathy. Are you willing to condemn the majority who support and champion Hamas?
    3
  65.  @johnlennon6790  I get what you're saying, but I don't think it works for adults the way it does for school bullies. If the man had gotten punched, chances are he would've just mocked the other guy as he was taken away in handcuffs and still called it a win for himself. Or sued him and possibly won, giving him more incentive to keep being a loser. It takes A LOT to shame and even fear adults into changing their behavior these days so if you're looking at this from a "teach him a lesson" standpoint I'm not sure it would work.
    3
  66.  @kpopfanxx-xx1154  Notice the difference though. You described yourself as being abused to the point of a mental breakdown yet who did you retaliate against? Your abusers. Not your innocent siblings. Not your innocent neighbors. Your attackers. Even your own moral compass is showing you that wrong actions don't justify attacking innocent people.
    3
  67.  @kpopfanxx-xx1154  Can you provide the evidence please?
    3
  68. I wasn't aware Israel kidnapped 30,000 children at gunpoint and held them in terror tunnels to use as bargaining chips and human shields. Could you please provide the data?
    2
  69. I can appreciate that you didn't come on here with the vile language that so many others did, but struggle to think I should respect a parent who kills their child for being disabled. It is quite sad to me that so many place no value on the lives of special needs people. Especially since all it takes is one accident or sickness for us to find ourselves in their shoes.
    2
  70. These were not POWs.
    2
  71.  @ChanaSchnerb  Nothing but senseless, baseless claims.
    2
  72. Sinwar looked pretty good after 20+ years in an Israeli prison.
    2
  73.  @criostoirodriscoll5472  No problem.
    2
  74. Yeah. It's almost like he's been free for three months and is doing well now that he's back with his family. Mind blowing how that works.
    2
  75. I am also sorry for the children who died in Gaza because of Hamas.
    2
  76.  @RazN98  I wasn't the one having trouble with titles. Is there a reason you're deflecting from the question? You seemed very passionate that the captives not be mislabeled. Would you like to specify the correct title for the 8-month old baby and 86-year old great-grandfather Hamas kidnapped along with this female soldier?
    2
  77. We have truly deteriorated as a society when we label parents as cruel when they love their disabled baby yet label parents as loving when they throw their disabled baby away.
    2
  78. Now lets use your standards to analyze video of Sinwar's release from an Israeli prison after 20+ years. He walked out on his own two feet with his head high. No visible injuries. Clean clothes. Seemingly showered. Not emaciated. Acting with a sound mind. By your own standards, that means he was treated well and there's no reason to cry about Israel's prisoners whatsoever.
    2
  79.  @karen-qm7og  Ask yourself what crime someone would have to commit against you that would justify you going into their home and brutally murdering their innocent family.
    2
  80. ​ @zaidal-hindawi1784  Great! That would be a welcome change from the idiocy overtaking these comment sections lately. I assume that means you fully acknowledge the great suffering the hostages experienced at the hands of Hamas then?
    2
  81. I've noticed all the male hostages in videos and those rescued have had short haircuts. A released hostage said they shaved all her husband's body hair in captivity and that they tried to make her fix her hair for the hostage videos.
    2
  82.  @rindaj7575  Lila wasn't disagreeing with that fact. The other person was talking about a specific incident in which a doctor gave bad medical advice that led a woman to an abortion. Lila was challenging him by asking, "Can doctors be wrong?" You should go back and listen. A lot of people misunderstood what she said there.
    2
  83. You should look up Harmonie-Rose Allen. And perhaps also remember there are many, many adults with severe disabilities who live full, happy lives.
    2
  84. I'm sure it will set her family at ease to know you have medically cleared her of malnutrition, abuse, rape, and mental deterioration. Please share more about your experience in meeting this young woman while she was captivity. I didn't know they were allowing nobodies access to the hostages, but I must be wrong as that is the only possible way for you to know what you claim to know about this woman. Also, with your level of medical knowledge about the level of care Hamas is providing for their hostages, I'd love to get your take on how Eden Yerushalmi could've weighed less than 80 pounds and Hersh Goldberg Polin barely 100 before they were executed.
    2
  85. Can you share the evidence that disproves it please? I'm very interested.
    2
  86. I was unaware that Israel kidnapped infants, toddlers, and school children from their homes at gunpoint to hold in terror tunnels where they can be used as human shields and bargaining chips. Can you please provide the data? I'm wondering if you may be confused and are actually thinking of the young Bibas boys who were kidnapped by Hamas at gunpoint and remain their prisoners over a year later.
    2
  87. Seriously. They act like they're monitoring a preschool classroom.
    2
  88.  @Shelly-o5j  Does kidnapping become okay if the kidnapper feeds and clothes their victim?
    2
  89.  @dmp1962  May I ask how you would define self-defense?
    2
  90.  @mideastgirl8926  Amit Soussana. I'm only sharing her name in case someone else reads your false claim about rape and would like to fact check you.
    2
  91. They should be reporting. There are still American citizens being held as hostages in Gaza.
    2
  92. All of them? I recall Aviva Siegel saying Hamas ate in front of them while they went hungry. And Andrey Koslov said they smothered him beneath piles of blankets during the summer. Amit Soussana spoke of sexual abuse from her captor. Qaid Farhan Alkadi said he watched an older hostage slowly die without medical care. I didn't know they publicly retracted those statements to say Hamas fed and treated them well. Can you provide the link please?
    2
  93.  @revanthganesh3808  There are other hostage families, soldiers' families, and victims of October 7th who did not want this deal.
    2
  94.  @revanthganesh3808  Some of the hostage families did not want this deal, but it wouldn't matter if they all did. The last people you should rely on for rational war strategy are those who are emotionally and personally affected.
    2
  95. Did you actually read the factchecks? They corrected both sides multiple times.
    2
  96.  @MysticMyst-1  You're not wrong. Their silence says a lot about their knowledge on the topic.
    2
  97. Actually, Sinwar left an Israeli prison without brain damage thanks to them saving his life.
    2
  98.  @pattit6530  Please provide the unbiased data that disproves what I've said.
    2
  99.  @coallie  And you are talking about Hamas fighters as if they are children and defending terrorists. I'm happy to not share your world view. By the way, the definition of enemy combatant is is a person who, during times of conflict, engages in hostilities against the other side. There is no age associated with the term so you actually provided a very accurate description.
    2
  100.  @coallie  You're using big words to deflect from answering my question. Do you condemn the Gazan citizens who participated in looting, burning, murdering, and kidnapping innocent Israeli civilians? Do you condemn them for holding hostages? Do you condemn them for dancing over the coffins of dead Israeli children? Do you condemn Hamas for hiding beneath hospitals and schools?
    2
  101.  @coallie  I condemn starting a senseless war. If you're unable to differentiate between war casualties and the targeting of civilians it would explain why you're so confused on this topic. Do you condemn the citizens of Gaza for the crimes they committed on 10/7? Do you condemn them for celebrating the dead Bibas children? Do you condemn them for holding hostages?
    2
  102. Burden of proof is on you. Go for it. I am interested in seeing your evidence to discredit what I have seen, read, and heard myself.
    2
  103. Can you provide evidence please that Israel kidnapped them at gunpoint from their beds as infants, toddlers, and school children?
    2
  104. Yes, cute babies often have difficult lives. Fortunately, this little one is blessed with parents who love him and will support him through those difficulties.
    2
  105. Matt, I don't mean to alarm you, but there's a tiny orange spaceman distracting your audience.
    2
  106. For over a year the claim has been that Hamas takes care of their hostages much better than Israel cares for the Palestinian prisoners. Now the claim is, "Well, the Palestinian prisoners look just as bad!" Which is it? We've seen the hundreds of prisoners being released and it doesn't support your narrative either. The vast majority exploded out of the buses with wide smiles, flashing peace signs, and energetic enough to parade on people's shoulders through the streets.
    2
  107. Some in houses. Some in tunnels. Some in both. Judging by your use of a confused emoji to describe your feelings I wouldn't expect you to grasp basic facts like an adult.
    2
  108. I wasn't aware Israel kidnapped 30,000 infants, toddlers, and school children from their beds to hold in terror tunnels as bargaining tools and human shields. I'd be very interested in seeing the data to support your claim.

  112. I highly recommend you look up Nick Vejicic. He was also born without limbs and he is living life to the fullest. So is Harmoni Rose Allen, a young girl who lost her limbs from meningitis and continues to be a happy, active child.
    1
  113.  @jackwilson5542  I highly recommend you look up Nick Vujicic. He will prove you quite wrong. This idea that it is selfish to value your disabled child's life and loving to throw them away for being disabled is such a sad, backwards way of thinking.

  116.  @jackwilson5542  This way of thinking is false and backwards.

  117.  @jackwilson5542  Just to clarify, do you say that because you are unaware of the many special needs people living full, happy lives or simply pretending they don't exist?

  119. I don't think you understand what the term "Adopt Don't Shop" means. It has absolutely nothing to do with getting dirt cheap or free pets. Rescues have a lot of ridiculous demands involved with adopting a pet, but having an adoption fee is not one of them.
    1
  120.  @angelasmr8818  Your false claim was that he was an active soldier. He completed his service months prior. He was kidnapped from a music festival in civilian clothing. If you don't believe me, you can look up the video Hamas published themselves of the moment they kidnapped Hersh and other civilians. You're just trying to gas light because you don't care when terrorists kidnap soldiers.
    1
  121. I suspect I know the answer, but have you ever visited a Pregnancy Resource Center? My local center accepts donations of kids' clothing all the way up to 5T. That doesn't really support your claim that pro-lifers quit caring about children after they're born.
    1
  122.  @janegreen191  Just curious, are you simply pretending there isn't video footage of Hamas kidnapping infants, toddlers, and school children or are you just hoping no one else saw it?
    1
  123.  @naymatunc-rc6vs  That has nothing to do with my comment. The claim was made that all Israeli hostages were soldiers and none were innocent. I was questioning those specific claims. Since you commented, would you like to state whether you think all Israeli hostages are soldiers and none are innocent?

  124. Gaslighter.

  127.  @criostoirodriscoll5472  Great response. It really shows how knowledgeable you are on the subject. I'd say you represented your side of the argument well.

  128. ​ @roar44879  The potential for suffering is a not an argument for abortion. We all have the potential for suffering. Many people born healthy suffer later. Many people expected to suffer live full, happy lives. You also missed the entire point of my comment. I was pointing out to the OP that the same people who love and value special needs children also love and value them as adults.

  129. They do it so people will gush over how wonderfully they took care of the people they stole. As you can see from this comment section there are plenty who fall for it.

  130.  @sadiariaz6183  Sorry, but the burden of disproof is on you. I saw Israel and Gaza not at war on 10/6. I saw the raw footage of 10/7, much of which was filmed and posted by Hamas. I heard the testimonies of former hostages. I read medical examiners and first responders' reports. I watched coverage of masked terrorists proudly handing over the women and children they kidnapped. I watched interrogation footage of Hamas members. I watched them suddenly emerge from tunnels, donning uniforms again, as they paraded down the street, cheered on by civilians taking selfies. I saw them climb on top of Red Cross vans and parade hostages across a stage for show. That isn't what Israel or the US told me. It's what my eyes saw. Would you like to disprove it?

  137.  @MaiaTarabrina  Okay, so I'm assuming you must not have any evidence to back your claim, but that's okay. This man has been free for 3 months already. It doesn't take long for someone who lost a lot of weight to gain it back very quickly. It happens all the time with people who endure many months of sickness, chemo, and severe injuries. Unfortunately for you, people on your side of the argument also argued that Eli Sharabi, Ohad Ben Ami, and Or Levy also came out looking well-fed even though they were grown men weighing less than 90-pounds. There is no value in your claims that these hostages look glowing and beautiful when your eyes do not allow you to see three men who were obviously starved.

  168.  @Anisky123  The question was where else in the world are children jailed without trial or conviction. These are the thirty-six minors Hamas kidnapped and imprisoned without trial or conviction in Gaza-Avigayil, Ofri, Yufel, Uriya, Ariel, Kfir, Emily, Hila, Ohad, Agam, Gal, Tal, Ella, Dafna, Yagil, Or, Yuval, Mika, Amit, Ofir, Yahel, Naveh, Noam, Emilia, Yuli, Emma, Eitan, Sahar, Erez, Raz, Aviv, Aisha, Mia, Noah, Alma, and Gali. I guess a trial would've been difficult to arrange for the infant, toddlers, and preschoolers, but the one thing they all have in common is that there certainly could never be a conviction. All were guilty of nothing. And two of them continue to be imprisoned in Gaza 11-months later. I don't need to lie when the truth is so easy to see.

  183. Former hostages have been giving interviews for over a year. Every time one is released or rescued, the pro-Hamas crowd demand interviews so they can hear how they were treated. Then when the hostages start giving interviews about starvation, assault, suffocating tunnels, lack of medical care, unsanitary conditions, and mental trauma the pro-Hamas crowd calls them liars. Be honest with yourself. You aren't going to believe anything these women say unless they're heaping praise on the terrorists.

  207.  @N.Mpenwarrior So, "I want to see live interviews, but I will discredit the live interviews and there aren't many live interviews anyway but the live interviews from November '23 shouldn't be believed if they said mean things about Hamas but the live interviews from November '23 should be believed if they said good things about Hamas." Got it. Keith Seigel, Doron Steinbrecher, Ohad Ben Ami, and Yair Horn have already released statements, too, by the way.
    1
  208.  @N.Mpenwarrior  The last four names I gave you were hostages just released this year. Three of the others were rescued last June. Can you provide links or names or data of hostages saying nice things about Hamas while they're not in captivity? Also, which video of Turbanov are you referring to? The recent one where he was told he was being released or the other two videos he made in captivity when he was talking of his dire need for rescue?
    1
  209. ​ @N.Mpenwarrior  You discredited the "very old" statements by former hostages and then use Yocheved Lifschitz who gave one of the very first statements ever, made immediately after her release while Hamas still held her husband captive. I asked for videos of hostages outside of captivity. Most of these you're referring to was during captivity. And if you're referring to the letter Daniella Aloni wrote in captivity, she delegitimized it herself in an interview some months later. You didn't clarify which video you're referring to with Trubanov, but I don't know what his speaking Hebrew has to do with it. Can you now provide proof of hostages saying nice things about Hamas outside of captivity?
    1
  210.  @N.Mpenwarrior  It's interesting you say I'm trying to avoid dialogue when every response I've given has related to the topic you started. You called this video fake because it has no live interviews, but you don't want to talk about other interviews with hostages making similar statements. You claimed most hostages didn't say mean things about Hamas. I asked you who they were and you offered a few flawed examples and "the many who haven't rushed out with comments" though I'm not sure how you know they exist if they haven't made public comments. I've invited you to share data to back your claims. Now you suddenly don't want to talk about it anymore. I do like your line about me not wanting to elevate the discussion though. It's a great way to try and get off the topic you are clearly trying to divert from.
    1
  211.  @N.Mpenwarrior  I have looked them up. They don't exist on my Internet, but I would welcome a list. Please give me the names of the hostages who said nice things about Hamas after they were released from captivity. And remember, you claimed it was the majority so the list should be lengthy. I did point out the flaws. I asked for statements after captivity. You gave me one. You named female IDF soldiers who made statements during captivity. You used Daniella Aloni as an example and I pointed out that that she did an interview that delegitimized the claims she made in captivity. I already pointed all of that out and you never even countered what I said which was odd. And you keep trying to accuse me of avoiding dialogue we were never engaged in which is also odd.
    1
  212.  @N.Mpenwarrior  "there have not been many circulating at all and most of them from Nov 2023 release and most of them from 2023 release explain they were treated humanely" "the point is the majority of comments from released prisoners and hostages have NOT been mean about Hamas" That was a valiant gaslighting effort on your part, but I never rewrote your words. All I asked was for you to prove up on them. My guess is that since you can't you're attempting to put a different spin on them. That video from the IDF soldiers was made before they were handed over to the Red Cross. Hamas is the one who released it. Who do you think filmed it? Why were three of these women in previous videos in captivity begging to be rescued? Why would Karina Ariev already release a public statement calling her time in Gaza a nightmare? And why would I go into another topic with you when you've failed to prove anything you said in this one was true?
    1
  213.  @N.Mpenwarrior  I'm expecting at least a couple dozen from you. You said the majority of former hostage statements said "not bad things" about Hamas. I would like to see those please. I have given you about a dozen names who said "not good things about Hamas" and can provide several others, so that means you're going to need to provide at least a couple dozen MORE to back your claim. See, when you use words like "majority" that means you need to provide MORE names than I did to prove your point. I hope that helps iron out the confusion on your part.
    1
  214.  @N.Mpenwarrior  You're showing me clips I've already referenced. Yocheved Lifschitz was in captivity for all of 17 days, but you act as though that speaks for all of the past 500. You just showed a lot of ignorance by claiming those IDF soldiers look like they're in love with their captors. Were the smiling male hostages in love with Hamas, too? Did the thought not cross your mind that it's early yet and these young women will most likely start publicly sharing their experiences in the near future? What's more likely to happen? They'll either share experiences similar to all the other released hostages or they'll come out and say they fell in love with the men who bloodied them, tied them up, kidnapped them, murdered their friends, and held them against their will for over a year.
    1
  215. ​ @N.Mpenwarrior  You're not getting anywhere with this. If you're going to try to twist the words of any hostage to fit your narrative Aviva Seigel is the worst one you could've picked. She has done numerous interviews where she spoke of how Hamas assaulted hostages, beat her husband, and starved them. Her husband Keith was released less than a month ago and already said he was starved and kicked. Almog Meir Jan gave a full interview in which he said not one good thing about Hamas. You're grasping at straws. Where are the majority of hostages who said "not bad things" about Hamas?
    1
  216.  @N.Mpenwarrior  Why do you keep bringing up stuff we weren't talking about? This had nothing to do with these soldiers' interview with the general. And how is it every time you quote Yocheved Lifschitz you never include her referring to her time in captivity as hell? And why would you focus on a 16-month old quote from her and not the one released by Keith Seigel less than a week ago? You said you wanted new quotes, not old ones. And the length of Karina's video is irrelevant. We both know if she had spent less than a minute saying good things about Hamas you would post that link in a heartbeat.

  217.  @N.Mpenwarrior  I thought you said it was easy to track who has and hasn't released statements. Maybe try looking for sources outside of pro-Hamas media?

  218. Seriously though, I'm really not trying to spar with you. I just think you're very ill-informed. There's actually a ton of information out there from many different released hostages. You'll just have to make sure you're looking outside of biased programming. Most of the interviews I saw were on YT so you might just have to do a little searching. You can also find videos outside of YT and also read interviews with various media sources. Aviva Seigel has been very outspoken about her experience so you should be able to find multiple statements from her, some even of her speaking live on news programs. Amit Soussana went public with her experience of sexual assault back in the summer and if you type in her name you'll see various clips. Moran Stela Yanai did a really interesting sit-down debate with a pro-Hamas advocate and I believe I saw that one on YT. I promise the information is out there and there's a lot more than you must realize.

  219.  @N.Mpenwarrior  Your credibility is just destroyed at this point. You did finally prove something though. This was never about the lack of interviews. You have already made up your mind to discredit every interview-past, present, and future-that doesn't tell you exactly what you want to hear and this last comment proves it. You are just clinging with white knuckles to anything you can twist to support your narrative and it is actually quite sad to watch. My only hope is that if anyone else reads our conversation, they will see your inability to back any of your absolutely empty claims and be encouraged to seek out the truth for themselves.

  220. ​ @N.Mpenwarrior  Yes, I already know her story and was surprised it took you this long to think of her. Congratulations. You found a person. I am genuinely glad for her that she did not leave Gaza deeply traumatized and also genuinely sad for her that Hamas murdered her husband. Now you'll have to forgive me for no longer having an interest in anything you have to say. I've just learned your favorite terrorist group is preparing to return four hostages to their families in body bags tomorrow including Yocheved Lifschitzan's 84-year old husband and Yarden Bibas' wife and their 4-year old and 9-month old children. The last person I care to engage with right now is someone who defends and supports evil.

  221. Yes, it's very important that we refer to the abductees by the correct labeling. So, I'm assuming you would have no issue referring to 1-year old Kfir and his 5-year old brother as hostages since they are not soldiers, correct?

He also has no limbs and lives a very full life. There's also a very happy, active little girl named Harmonie Rose Allen who lost all her limbs from meningitis. It's also quite amazing to see what Paralympics' athletes can do. I watched a man with deformed legs and no arms win a gold medal in the backstroke! You should check it out!

  233.  @dersozialewestfale5114  Giving up the future and security of millions to save dozens would be a far bigger betrayal. We don't have to wonder what this deal would to do to Israel because it is the same deal that was made before. It is not saving lives, only trading them.

  234.  @reemhamad9311  I'm unaware of Israel kidnapping infants, toddlers, and schoolchildren at gunpoint to hold in terror tunnels as human shields and bargaining chips. Are you sure aren't thinking of the Bibas boys who were kidnapped at gunpoint by Hamas and remain in Gaza more than a year later where they are denied food and healthcare and are tortured?
    1
  235. Eden Yerushalmi was filthy and weighed less than 80 pounds before Hamas executed her in a tunnel. They planned to put the female IDF soldiers on stage in front of the media. Do you believe they would have paraded Eden onto that stage looking the way she did the day they murdered her? Or is it possible they might've ensured the soldiers were showered, fed, and had clean clothes before putting them on public display?

  236.  @be-dog-free  All ridiculous points. Different jobs have different responsibilities. If someone chooses to clean houses for the elderly are they also responsible to change their diapers? I've known elementary-aged kids who refused to wipe themselves. Would you want your daughter's male teacher taking care of that since he chose to work in that demographic? Calling this a lack of compassion and contempt of children is stupid. Any sane person can see it isn't safe for children or teachers to cross this line.

  237. Have you noticed that your comment provides the perfect example of what it means to try to gaslight people? Gaslighting-the practice of psychologically manipulating someone into questioning their own sanity, memory, or powers of reasoning. There is no way for you to know she is in good health or that her body is not weak. The only part of your comment that was accurate is that this is, in fact, what Islam is all about.

  238. Words have meanings. Can you please provide the correct definition of virus?
    1
  239.  @ofanichan  That is not the definition of virus. Again, words have meanings. Meriam-Webster, among other sources, defines virus as a large group of submicroscopic infectious agents that are usually regarded as nonliving extremely complex molecules. Also worth noting, Meriam-Webster and various other sources define fetus as an unborn or unhatched vertebrate especially after attaining the basic structural plan of its kind. May I ask where you got your information from?
    1
  240.  @ofanichan  You've tried this approach twice now in your replies, but it isn't doing what you think it's doing. Would you like to explain how a fetus, or "unborn offspring" and virus, or "infectious agents" can be the same when their definitions are not? And provide your sources as well?
    1
  241.  @ofanichan  Ah, yes. Because when we claim words and meanings are fluid it conveniently gives us an excuse not to provide any facts to back anything we say. I can see why dictionaries would intimidate you. No, viruses and pregnancy do not do the same things to your body. If they did, pregnant women would go see infectious disease doctors instead of obstetricians.

I don't need a history lesson or to be educated on apartheid to know whoever mass rapes and slaughters civilians, mutilates and burns children alive, murders old people in their homes, and steals men, women, children, toddlers, babies, and seniors from their homes is on the wrong side of morality. You refuse to condemn the people of Gaza, but you also have not tried to disprove a single thing I said about them. That means you are well aware of who those so-called "innocent" civilians are and you're trying not to just come right out and say you don't care. You should've just skipped all the surface-talk and saved us both time by opening up with this comment. At your core, you defend and support terrorists and justify October 7th.

  266. For anyone who may read this person's comment, nothing they are saying is true. They chose the same few examples everyone else uses when trying to gaslight you into believing these hostages were treated well. Most of these clips are over a year old, taken out of context, some are heavily edited, and many come from pro-Hamas leaning media. This person used the same old clip of Yocheved Lifshitz everyone else uses when the 80-year old woman had just been released from captivity and had to leave her husband behind. What they did not include was the most recent statements she made earlier this year after Hamas released her husband's body when she said they fought for peace in Gaza and were attacked by the people they helped. They also showed the same snippet of an interview with Agam Goldstein-Almog, but like everyone else didn't want to include her full story in which she says she and her mother will never forgive Hamas or shared a link to her testimony of the abuse another female hostage suffered. They also failed to mention that Noa Argamani has been begging for her boyfriend's rescue from Hamas for almost a year now. They purposely did not share links to interviews with Aviva and Keith Seigel, Eli Sharabi, Mia Schem, Andrey Koslov, Almog Meir Jan, Omer Wenkert, Tal Shoham, and many others who speak of abuse, starvation, and the horrors of being in Hamas' captivity. This person is lying to you.

  275.  @haqambassador  Since you're taking the videos of hostages shaking hands with Hamas at face value, are you also accepting the videos and quotes of some of those same hostages stating that Hamas told them to show gratitude? Also, you do realize that the guy who kissed them is standing right there talking to Donald Trump right? I guess by your logic he went from being in love with Hamas to pleading with Trump to rescue his friends from Hamas. That's an interesting take.

You said Israel was doing the same thing as Hamas. I asked you for evidence proving that Israel is kidnapping infants and toddlers from their beds at gunpoint and holding them hostage in terror tunnels. All you did was refer to detained minors. Those are two very different things. So, again, please provide the evidence that Israel is going into Gaza, kidnapping infants and toddlers at gunpoint, and holding them in terror tunnels.
