Israeli hostage Noa Argamani freed in time to see her terminally ill mother

Hours after being rescued from eight months captivity in Gaza, freed hostage Noa Argamani arrived at a hospital in Tel Aviv to see her terminally ill mother.

Argamani, 26, was one of the most recognized faces among the hostages abducted by Hamas on Oct. 7. Harrowing footage of her being taken into Gaza on the back of a motorcycle, pleading for her life and reaching desperately towards her boyfriend being marched alongside her on foot circulated across the globe.

blahsay,

Wow the islamists are mad they got her out alive. I bet she has some stories to tell.

@blahsay @DolphinMath they have trying to give them back for months, but the Zionists just wanted to murder innocent people

DolphinMath,

A news article from less than a week ago?

The first sentence being:

Hamas rejected the US-backed proposal to end the conflict in Gaza, saying Israel must commit to a permanent cease-fire and full withdrawal…

Seems “Zionists” aren’t the only obstacles to peace and the release of hostages.

    Nice for her, not nice for all the Palestinians whose lives were not terminated until this war started.

    Tryptaminev,

    Note how there is worthy and unworthy victims?

    We get a detailed story about her to humanize and empathize with the Israeli victims. There is nothing wrong with that. However we do not get these kind of accounts for the tens of thousands of Palestinians murdered by Israel. We do not get these detailed accounts on how being raped and tortured in Israeli “administrative detention” aka Israeli hostageship destroys children, women and men.

    This strategy is used to justify the atrocities against the one group by dehumanizing them, while humanizing the group of the perpetrators. This is fascism in real time. And it will be the moral, political and ultimately human downfall of all of the allies of Israel.

    JayTreeman,

    Thank you. It's the easiest propaganda to consume. It's important to recognize it for what it is.

    Closure of Gaza’s only route out leaves boy, 10, with no treatment for cancer

    GAZA, June 4 (Reuters) - Siraj Yassin, 10, is rolled into the overcrowded Gaza hospital ward in his wheelchair, his light green T-shirt dwarfing his skinny frame since the leukaemia in his blood wrecked his immune system, sapped his strength and left him unable to walk.

    Chemotherapy would help him, his doctors say. But he can’t get it here in Gaza, and he can’t get out of the enclave for treatment now that Israeli forces have shut the only exit through the Rafah crossing into Egypt.

    Why didnt you post any of those articles as Lemmy threads then?

    Op’s point lacked some defined clarity of context, but your particular subjective posting demonstrates your own inherent bias. It genuinely seems you only feigned objectivity as an attack to divert from exposure of your own bias.

    Propaganda posting is propaganda posting, whichever side it comes from.

    The person I replied to wrote:

    I have listened to, read, and seen dozens if not hundreds of Palestinian stories going into great detail about their lives and suffering. The narrative that the media, and in particular Reuters, doesn’t cover Palestinian stories because they are unworthy victims is patently false. These articles are quick examples of this and I posted them to challenge the perception of some users on Lemmy (Lemmings?).

    Reuters is not propaganda, that is abundantly clear.

    No mention of the 200+ Palestinians killed, including women and children.

    SuddenDownpour,

    Hey, what a great occasion to talk about the uselessness of these rankings.

    Calling out media for outright lying is great, but the way their “bias” is judged is almost always tied to where they are perceived to be in a left-right spectrum, where being “centrist” is considered to be “not biased”, even though the political center is defined by a given society’s current political and ideological paradigm - not because it is “objective” or “unbiased”. This way, “lack of bias” becomes a slur to throw against anyone who doesn’t conform to the stablishment.

    Furthermore: lack of bias is impossible. Adding to what the other comments are saying: if you wanted to comment and report on this hostage’s situation and experience without bias, you should dedicate similar amounts of time and effort to inform about every victim of this conflict, whether they’re died to a missile, they were taken hostage, they were taken to prison in the West Bank without legal guarantees, they died to direct fire, or they’re suffering hunger.

    To illustrate this issue even more clearly: every few weeks if not more often, we get a report on an Israeli who is given a name, a face, a family, and a context of what’s their family context, and they’re usually young women. Media does report on the number of reported Palestinian victims (along with Israeli officials and their allies saying that the sources shouldn’t be trusted, no matter what the sources are), but how often are those victims given a name, a face and a story on their life?
