In the video released by Hamas, 21-year-old Miya Shem says she’s being given medical care and asks to go home as soon as possible. It’s unclear if she’s being forced to make the statement or when the video was shot. Meanwhile, there’s a flurry of diplomatic activity in Israel, as three sources tell NBC News President Biden is strongly considering a trip there in the coming days. Lester Holt is inside Israel with the latest.

#HamasAttack #Israel #Gaza
The blood of these innocent and the abuse of these hostages is the failure of Biden and the fault of those who support him.
What a load of BS
OPEN THE F K N BORDER WITH EGYPT. CANT DO THAT CAUSE ISRAEL HAS BEEN COURTING EGYPT FOR THE LAST FEW YEARS
Israel was occupying seven decades and Hamas was born in 1987 as a result of the colonization
Free Palestine! That is my democractic thought
And thanks to the mainstream news media. Like you guys you just keep it going pathetic
1:28 Western Media will never leave Propaganda. While The Hostages are freed…
# Free Palestine
Two States
Negotiations
Is this a joke. She literally looks off camera nervously. Yes she is being forced to make the statement under threat of violence.
I’m only seen all the war they are used soldiers to be hostages , but Palestines Hamas use civilian be hostages 😆😆😆 so evil . Too chicken 👎👎👎
you killed childern
me when i lie:
Just see how peaceful the streets of Israel look
Western media is soo baised
Stop licking the soles of Israel
The idea of dual-citizenship is stupid. But if it’s going to be allowed, at the very least, a person residing in a country of one of their citizenships should not be considered a citizen of another country when something goes wrong. If you are an Israeli-American, then why are you suddenly “an American” when something happens? If something happens in America, is that person an Israeli? I don’t know if any of the Americans that are hostage are also Israeli, but several of those killed of several nationalities were dual-citizens.
All Palestinians Muslims held in Israel and all jews held in Gaza should be freed. Must not be one sided.
Keeps those fools out the United States any real American wanting to move into another country shouldn’t have the right or respect to return to the country.
She just happens to be beautiful…, lol lame propaganda?
Force to make a statement 😂
I really don’t believe nothing mainstream media say
free Palestine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Didn’t the left say that the Trumper was going to start World War III well it’s pretty clear Trump didn’t because Putin was afraid of him China the little guy with the weird haircut was afraid of Trump but hey you got Biden all the best!!’
Israel is an apartheid state none of you would want to trade places with the down trodden. Straight hypocrites!
Netanyahu is a war lingering evil pig
I asure you she is not forced to say so
Only Zionists would force prisoners to do so
The Elite of these people LIE so much. I wouldn’t put it pass the frauds to release propaganda for an innocent look and justification of terrorisms.
The worst thing you can do is give a victim mentally power. Seem the worlds of whyte loves them and that aint what the Holy BIBLE prophesied about a scattered amongst all the nations OPPRESSED people.
Blinken is treasonous. Biden is treasonous.
If the People of the USA don’t hold them accountable we are more than likely going to be drawn into a conflict which very well might be our undoing. The People of the United States of America have no legitimate interest in getting involved in the conflict between Israel and it’s neighbors.
and yea…. it’s not likely that the People will hold them accountable in a time to avoid disaster. We’ve been too complacent.
shes hot.
*Luke 21.28* 🌎✌🏽️
ZERO WARS UNDER TRUMP
Don’t worry Mus.lims in their religion structures shouldn’t hurt hostages .. girls ..womens .. kids .olders. they just defend them la.nds that have been ta,ken from the people who are asked for help before ! hahaha
Yes, Biden is going to ” trip ” to Israel and mumble his way through! He’ll probably be looking for those ice cream trucks!
I dont care about hamas or israel. This type of stuff happens DAILY all over the world, bickering between two nations, killing one another. Why is this one special?
Biased news
LIES
JUDEN LIES
Now i see why biden went out there
Free free Palestine
So… Hamas terrorists wear bodycams that work, but US police don’t (or they never work when needed)? Interesting.
She has tattoos and lip fillings, she can be spared
Can you trust Hamas who after what they did, and suddenly seem to have become humanitarians. Offering to free non Israeli captives because they want to save lives or to motivate the rest of the word to put pressure on Israel. The hostages are of every nationality, and when Hamas are prepared to free innocent Israeli hostages then you might expect Israel to be open to negotiation.
Ndio maaana wanapigwa wawaachiliw hao hostage
Q. Whats the difference between mein kampf and hamas charter:
A. Whilst Hamas charter also calls for extermination of all jews, it is much shorter
Fake news u dummies
Oh, its super credible NBC.
Israel is an illegal occupier, its a group of terrorist jews. There should be no be israel in order to maintain the Peace of world
Why doesn’t Biden travel to Palestine first?
They should not be allowing women to stay.
“rocket allerts”
What?. Factual news!
Liars & deceivers. West needs to butt out!!
A large number of people in our country serve Israel. Sri Lankans who went to work were brutally abducted and killed. But some leaders of Sri Lanka acted cowardly in favor of terrorists. Either way, let Israel win. These Muslims are trying to destroy all the other races by putting up one program after another.. For example, don’t you see when Muslims go on a bus, how they push other people and take the entire bus space. What was the destruction caused by the Easter attack? Also, most of the powerful leaders of the underworld are Muslims. So the Muslims were the first to launch missiles at them. It is common for Jews to do. If you read the history of Sri Lanka, some people will understand what a pain it is when a country is invaded. The Jews are doing it to protect their nation and the earth. If the Jews remain silent about what is being done at first, there will be even more destruction later. May the Jews win.
199 hostages when the Israel government has 2 million people hostage in a open air prison for 75+ years Free Palestine
Jeez I bet they didn’t want to let that go
Shes haunted looking facially
Very pretty crisis actress
people only care cos she’s hot
So, WHO created HAMAS and WHY? According to Zeev Sternell, acknowledged authority on modern Jewish history and columnist for Haaretz, HAMAS was created by Israel to counter the growing popularity of Arafat’s PLO. Other sources provide this information. Sheikh Ahmed Yassin forms Hamas as the military arm of his Islamic Association, which had been licensed by Israel ten years earlier (see 1973-1978).
According to Charles Freeman, a former US ambassador to Saudi Arabia, “Israel started Hamas. It was a project of Shin Bet, which had a feeling that they could use it to hem in the PLO.” [COUNTERPUNCH, 1/18/2003; DREYFUSS, 2005, PP. 191, 208] Anthony Cordesman, a Middle East analyst for the Center for Strategic Studies, states that Israel “aided Hamas directly—the Israelis wanted to use it as a counterbalance to the PLO.” A former senior CIA official speaking to UPI describes Israel’s support for Hamas as “a direct attempt to divide and dilute support for a strong, secular PLO by using a competing religious alternative.”
David Shipler, a former New York Times reporter, later recounts that he was told by the military governor of the Gaza Strip, Brigadier General Yitzhak Segev, that the Israeli government had financed the Islamic movement to counteract the PLO and the communists. According to Martha Kessler, a senior analyst for the CIA, “we saw Israel cultivate Islam as a counterweight to Palestinian nationalism.” Further, according to an unnamed US government official, “the thinking on the part of some of the right-wing Israeli establishment was that Hamas and the other groups, if they gained control, would refuse to have anything to do with the peace process and would torpedo any agreements put in place.” And to quote from the link below, ….”The Hamas had built its strength through its various acts of sabotage of the peace process, in a way which was compatible with the interests of the Israeli government. In turn, the latter sought in a number of ways, to prevent the application of the Oslo accords. In other words, Hamas was fulfilling the functions for which it was originally created:… to prevent the creation of a Palestinian State.
If Israel’s creation of HAMAS was for strategic purposes, that of disrupting the peace talks and preventing peace in Palestine, in accordance with Oded Yinon’s “A Strategy for Israel in the Nineteen Eighties” which details the plans for the greater Israel (including all of Palestine), it should be of NO surprise to anyone that the ISRAEL’S “HAMAS Charter” is full of aggressive threats and calls for Jihad. It could be said that HAMAS is the MOSSAD’s greatest ever creation, as effective today as the day it was created.
Stop it Israel
Biden can’t look after his own country let alone someone else’s. I still remember those Americans that were sacrificed in Afghanistan and those left behind. R.I.P.
Destroying civilizations while calling ourselves civilized 🫤
Biden is a fraud
God knows what she has been through in the hands of these monsters
