This occurred to me while listening to the news. When they exchange people it’s always hostages for people held in Palestine and prisoners for people held in Israel. Why is that? Is it just perception or is there a practical difference?

    Well, Palestinians didn’t take hostages. They mostly tried to survive under an oppressive Terror Regime while the government that claims to own the land did nothing but feed on their misery for political gains. They are victims.

    Hamas established said terror Regime and then unleashed their hatred on innocents inside and outside of their domain.

    We need to clearly separate those two.
