ABC Controversially Suggests Hostage Rescue Isn't Worth The Risk of Blasting Hamas - Find Out Why!
Over the weekend, Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) launched a daring rescue mission for hostages, risking lives in a Hamas stronghold. But instead of focusing on their courage, ABC host, Martha Raddatz, grilled the IDF spokesman about the actions taken by the soldiers to defend themselves and the hostages during the rescue operation.
IDF spokesman Lieutenant Colonel Peter Lerner recounted that the day of the rescue operation was one of celebration in Israel, with people revelling in the joy. But to our disappointment, Raddatz seemed keen on damping this spirit by peddling unverified Hamas propaganda. She focused on the number of civilian casualties alleged by Hamas, completely neglecting the context of the operation.
The IDF’s mission was to rescue hostages, held by a terrorist organization in civilian homes. By their inherent nature, the circumstances were risky and dangerous. Lerner pointed out the operation’s sad reality: the tragic loss of civilian lives was a direct result of the way Hamas conducts its operations. But it was clear that Raddatz was more keen on questioning the necessity of the defensive actions of the IDF than on understanding this point.
The IDF came under heavy fire during the rescue. There were threats from all sides- RPGs, AK-47s, explosive devices, and mortar rounds. The IDF soldiers had no choice but to fight back to save the hostages. But Raddatz interrupted Lerner again, ignoring the fact that the IDF was operating in a hostile environment and was primarily focused on securing the hostages and ensuring their safety.
Raddatz, in her unwavering pursuit, asked whether the same operation would be conducted to rescue the remaining hostages, completely disregarding the consequences the violence by Hamas had on civilians. She even questioned whether the IDF cared about Palestinian civilians. Lerner exposed the absurdity of the question by explaining that the war could end immediately if Hamas chose to release the hostages – a fundamentally humane act.
At the end of the interview, viewers were left wondering whether Raddatz could perceive the simple truth: The IDF was left with no choice but to act with full force to rescue the hostages held by Hamas. The blame for the civilian lives lost in the process rests squarely on the shoulders of that terrorist organization.
In conclusion, while the IDF soldiers were putting their lives on the line for the noble cause of rescuing hostages, ABC, in its quest for controversy, overlooked the essentials of the situation. In the struggle between good and evil, it was disheartening to see Martha Raddatz of ABC focusing more on creating a narrative of controversy than on the true heroes of the day – the IDF soldiers.
