They released Thai citizens and the hostages have to all say they were treated well.<\/p>\n<p>Man: When we negotiated with Hamas, they didn&#8217;t give any requests or conditions for release. They just said that the Thai hostages would be freed when there&#8217;s a ceasefire.<\/p>\n<p>Woman: But Hamas did kill at least 39 Thai citizens.<\/p>\n<p>Man: 39 Thais were killed, that&#8217;s for sure. But we don&#8217;t know where or how. It&#8217;s a war.<\/p>\n<p>Woman: It is indisputable that families were murdered by Hamas on October the seventh. Why did you feel so sure that they would protect hostages?<\/p>\n<p>Man: Definitely. It is a war. There was killing on both sides. But the main point of Hamas going there was to capture hostages and to use them for deals to help the Palestinians.<\/p>\n<p>Woman: Just to be clear, you&#8217;re not denying that Hamas killed Israeli civilians, are you?<\/p>\n<p>Man: According to Hamas, they only wanted to kill Israeli soldiers, not civilians.<\/p>\n<p>Woman: Are you sympathetic with Hamas&#8217;s cause? And do you think that&#8217;s in part why you&#8217;ve been able to negotiate the release of Thai citizens?<\/p>\n<p>Man: I sympathize with the Palestinian people. After more and more wars, the land was taken and eventually Palestinians were refugees and made second class citizens. You don&#8217;t have to be a Muslim to have sympathy for Palestinians.<\/p>\n<p>Woman: Do you think that Hamas was justified in taking hostages from Israel?<\/p>\n<p>Man: Yes, because there are more than 6000 Palestinians captured in the past and their families can&#8217;t visit them. No one heard the cries. The world didn&#8217;t hear their cries. That&#8217;s why Hamas had to do this, to get the world&#8217;s attention focused on Israel&#8217;s treatment of the Palestinians. They want to negotiate more and achieve change to get for the people of Gaza.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MUST WATCH* In an interview with Sky News in the UK, Dr. Lerpong Sayed, a Thai hostage negotiator, explained that when negotiating with Hamas, \u2018they didn\u2019t give any requests or&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":432,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[19,35,37,33],"tags":[],"powerkit_post_featured":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-429","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-daizy-gedeon","8":"category-israel-hamas-war","9":"category-israel-hamas-war-live-updates","10":"category-middle-east-news"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/daizygedeon.com\/news-blogs-and-cultures\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/429","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/daizygedeon.com\/news-blogs-and-cultures\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/daizygedeon.com\/news-blogs-and-cultures\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/daizygedeon.com\/news-blogs-and-cultures\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/daizygedeon.com\/news-blogs-and-cultures\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=429"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/daizygedeon.com\/news-blogs-and-cultures\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/429\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/daizygedeon.com\/news-blogs-and-cultures\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/432"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/daizygedeon.com\/news-blogs-and-cultures\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=429"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/daizygedeon.com\/news-blogs-and-cultures\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=429"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/daizygedeon.com\/news-blogs-and-cultures\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=429"},{"taxonomy":"powerkit_post_featured","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/daizygedeon.com\/news-blogs-and-cultures\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/powerkit_post_featured?post=429"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
