No to Capitulation

Newly Freed 'Heroes' of the Palestinian 'Resistance' 

Aside from the September 13, 1993, Oslo Accords, the worst self-inflicted damage done to Israeli security was implemented by Binyamin Netanyahu on October 18, 2011, when he released the most blood-thirsty terrorists in Israel’s prisons in exchange for one captive IDF soldier.

Many of these individuals went on to rebuild Hamas in Gaza, including Yahya Sinwar, who was serving four life sentences, and to conduct terror operations in the West Bank. Others have played a role in Hamas “outside” operating from Turkey and Qatar.

Thousands of Israelis have been killed and wounded as a result of Netanyahu’s catastrophic surrender to terror.

Now, under similar pressure, Israel’s weakest Prime Minister in history is toying with another prisoner release in return for some of the 200-plus captives taken by Hamas on October 7.

Any such release would torpedo our entire war effort, insult the sacrifices made by the families of IDF fallen, undermine Israel's efforts to rebuild its shattered deterrence, and send a message to our enemies that we have entirely lost our resolve to survive in this region.

Rather than capitulate, Israel’s message must be: All Israeli and non-Israeli captives and remains must be released unconditionally.

The devastation, dislocation, and suffering in Gaza is the exclusive responsibility of Hamas.

If you want to end the suffering – call on Hamas to surrender unconditionally.

Netanyahu, do not capitulate – again.
