| Many Israeli ministers have made the argument that this bombardment campaign will only escalate and that the real goal is the release of the Israeli captives. But the captives’ families say the bombardment threatens their lives. Already, over the past 16 months, we’ve seen several cases in which Israeli captives were killed in these kinds of bombardment campaigns. We’ve heard in the last few minutes from freed Israeli captives who have sounded quite desperate – basically fearing for the lives of those who were left behind – because they know what it means to be under Israeli bombardment. The fact that Netanyahu is unaffected by this kind of pressure, by this kind of outrage, speaks a lot to his calculus. ----- Source: AJE Live blog |
