51-year-old Nadav Popplewell was a British-Israeli citizen who held dual citizenship and made aliyah over two decades ago. 84-year-old Amiram Cooper was a co-founder of Kibbutz Nir Oz. Kibbutz Nir Oz was particularly savaged during October 7. According to a Times of Israel report:
The kibbutz of Nir Oz is perhaps the best place to understand Hamas’s hostage strategy, an operation that was unprecedented both in scope and execution.
The NBC report below states that “the deaths were announced as an Israeli cease-fire proposal backed by President Joe Biden was being challenged by right-wing ministers in Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government who are opposed to any deal with Hamas.” It is nonsensical to include the detail that the ministers who challenged the proposal are “right-wing.” It is irrelevant. But since it has been raised, it should also be noted that the “left-wing Biden” is a bane to Israel. He has betrayed a long-time American ally at a critical time, as Israel stands at the frontlines of the global jihad, and is trying to stave off its annihilation. Hamas is a jihad terrorist organization that should be destroyed. Should Hamas not be destroyed, it will regroup and double down on its efforts to destroy Israel, with backing from Iran.
Instead of scrutinizing and lambasting Israel, the world should be putting pressure on Hamas to surrender, as it continues to use Palestinians as human shields in Rafah. The Palestinian Authority also should be denounced for funding terrorism against Israeli citizens and encouraging “martyrdom” among Palestinians, including children.
According to the Israeli Government Press Office:
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu appeared yesterday (Monday) appeared before the Knesset Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee and verified in a comment that “the claims that we have agreed to a ceasefire without our conditions being met are incorrect.”
On the heels of the announcement about the death of the four hostages, Palestinian officials “asked to join South Africa’s case accusing Israel of committing genocide in Gaza.”
Four Israelis taken hostage by Hamas on Oct. 7 and a paramedic who was killed after he “left his home to save lives” have been confirmed dead, the Israel Defense Forces said Monday.
The families of hostages Nadav Popplewell, Yoram Metzger, Amiram Cooper and Haim Perry were informed that they are “no longer alive” and that Hamas has their remains, the IDF said.
“Our hearts go out to their families,” IDF spokesperson Daniel Hagari said. “We are sorry. We couldn’t save them in time.”
Hagari also announced the death of 35-year-old paramedic Dolev Yehud, who was killed Oct. 7.
“He left his home to save lives,” Hagari said, adding that Yehud is survived by his pregnant wife and their three children. “He was murdered by Hamas.”
The deaths were announced as an Israeli cease-fire proposal backed by President Joe Biden was being challenged by right-wing ministers in Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government who are opposed to any deal with Hamas.
The IDF’s said its decision to “pronounce the four hostages dead was based on intelligence.”
“We estimate that the four of them were killed together in the Khan Yunis area several months ago…..

I will bless those that bless thee and curse those that curse thee. The Left all over the planet are cursing Israel as they receive attacks that they are too pathologically stupid to attribute to Islamic terrorism Iran’s top ghoul dies in a helicopter crash that he could have avoided by purchasing a new helicopter instead of a 40 year old defunct model. Meanwhile Biden tells Israel how to willingly destroy themselves as he leaves the southern border open to fill Dearbornistan with voters in his favor (he hopes his boot licking will garner votes) Funny how ghoul is a Persian word. Biden, Eurabia and Iran by their actions actually curse Israel and it appears inherit curses themselves but no one notices that.Yahweh Elohim spoke that to Abraham in regards to Israel in a Covenant unbroken up to this day. Eurabia, South Africa, Australia, Canada and America are doing just fine surreptitiously trying to undermine the existence of Israel ?? Yes indeed doing just fine.

On THE JERUSALEM POST it was reported that more than a third of the hostages who had been kidnapped are now dead, This horrible reality should no shock to any person who knows vicious malicious and murderous essence of Hamas.
The jihadists of Hamas inflection death on those hostages is of no surprise when taking into account the demonic brutal cruel religion that Hamas has its foundation on, which of course is Islam, Surah 5:33. 9:123.
For there is absolutely no limits to the vile, heinous horrifically murderous wickedness that the jihadists of Hamas had committed and will continue to commit because of because of their demonic and malice-filled religion that is Islam.

According to THE JERUSALEM POST it was made known that more than a third of the hostages who kidnapped by Hamas is a result of the teachings, doctrines , of Islam with it’s Quran as found in Surah 2;191. 4:48. 9:5,123 47;4] do cause and inspire the Muslim terrorists to murder helpless people.
.
Some naive Westerners who don’t know and understand about the bloody and deadly essence of Islam’s jihad , might be shocked and stop and wonder “Just how can those jihadists of Hamas be so totally unconscionably evil to commit those affront of cold blooded murder ?”
The answer to that question is found in the Bible, which informs its reader that there are some men who are completely horrifically callous heartless and unfeeling because they have had “their conscience seared with a hot iron.” First Timothy 4:2. [K.J.V.]
For them, that “hot iron” is Islam.

Why people support Hamas is something I will never understand along with people blaming Israel for defending itself.
Its twisted mentality.
Will stand with Israel always, Israel does good for the world…..what has Hamas done to better humanity?
OLD GUY says
Sorry they didn’t just DIE in Hamas custody. Most likely they died from abuse and violence caused by HAMAS.
PROTEST THAT PLEASE.
Tony Rice says
It will be interesting to see how many Palestinians publicly protest in the streets of London and elsewhere around the world for Hamas not only taking hostages but allowing them to die whilst in their custody and control and IN THEIR NAME, PROPHET AND ALLAH.. In the eyes of the world, the reputation of those three have been dragged into filth.
