Hamas reports three more Israeli captives fatally injured in air raids
[GEO.TV] Abu Obaida, spokesperson for Hamas's armed wing, the Qassam Brigades, confirms that three captives have succumbed to injuries from Israeli attacks. The same air raids had previously killed two captives and left eight seriously injured. Abu Obaida postpones releasing names until the fate of the remaining wounded captives is determined.
Sure, blame it on the Israelis, when if it were not for Hamas, those people would not be at risk as captives in Gaza. The Geneva Conventions forbid holding civilians as captives for ransom or as human shields.

#1 Sure, blame it on the Israelis, when if it were not for Hamas, those people would not be at risk as captives in Gaza. The Geneva Conventions forbid holding civilians as captives for ransom or as human shields.

I'm sure there's special exception in UN rules for anyone fighting Israel.

#3 The Geneva conventions don't apply to moslems. But they apply to anyone hurting them back.

#5 Most hostages are dead. These two are an exception. I guess the Gazan family they were placed with are to thank.
